However, to my dismay, I found six live baby turtles being displayed in one of the pet shops in the Klang Valley. How did this pet shop obtain a licence to sell the turtles? I hope the authorities will book this unscrupulous trader for selling this protected species, which may eventually end up in someone's soup pot. JENNIFER CHIN, Petaling Jaya.
