Eggs of the other three species are still legal - and that is why a National Action Plan on Turtles is being drafted now. (b) Is it possible for you to tell me the location of the turtle farm that you claimed is owned by the State government? Because as far as I am concerned, there is NO SUCH farms. EatLaH:

There is a tutle farm in terengganur own by the gov to protect those turtle, why the gov did know the illegal selling of turtle egg in a open public area. Maybe you should contact some tv3 or ntv 7 siasat go find it out. Protect the turle for our future generation!!! It’s illegal, Should not buy it because it’s a protected species.

I hope they banned the selling of all turtle eggs soon. Ridiculous to ban it in Sabah but allow it in peninsular Msia.

Terrapins include all species living in freshwater, be it hard or soft shelled and tortoises usually refer to terrestrial turtles :) 5-eks-mom: All terrapins are turtles, but not all turtles are terrapins :)
