We saw them all over town ,
but in this little street it was the worst.
Prepared sea turtles. I think it is sad to see
these endagered species varnished and
sold as a souvenir.
For your information , it are illegal souvenirs.
They are illegal on Java so IF you get them out
of the country , chances are little that you'll
get them into yours.
I know there are people who think that
C.I.T.E.S-law is a lot of bull.
And it probably isn't perfect.
I think it would be sad to loose a magnificient
species like this , just because some people
think they look better on a wall.
(and because of some profit made by selling them)
NOTHING!
Not knowing things is not an excuse
Ignorance is a disease that can be cured.
I hope in the feature the government can
work out a plan to offer alternative ways of
getting an income. Most likely it will be
foreign organisations that will set up some
aid program.
