A person saw this turtle at the market and thought she was dead, but she was still alive while being sold part by part to preserve FRESHNESS. This is the most horrid thing I have seen in a while. The sickest part is that nobody intervened, the person tried to contact animal control and even fish and wildlife but nobody helped. In fact San Jose animal control said that the turtle "is not an animal" and thus not their business. Any people in California, the place is 99 Ranch Market on Barber Lane in Milpitas, California. This is most likely not the last turtle they will sell like this. They have to be stopped. Please!
