Just like with the hingebacks, I remember when galbies were so cheap and plentiful. If only we could have known then, what we do now...

Yes sadly it was, but that was true with so many of the tortoises and turtles. Just think with the advances we have now, how much higher the chances of getting them to survive would be.

But their rarity on the markets today is probably a good thing.
