If turtles are banned, so so should dogs and cats. Turtles can transmit only salmonella to humans. Dogs and cats can transmit salmonella and several dozen other dangerous diseases such as rabis. Dogs and cats are allowed to run feral. Its is estimated 10 Million song birds are killed by house cats kept out doors. Look at what house cats have done to Australia. Feral turtles do less damage than other feral domestic animals. For exampe, feral goats and pigs have whiped out numerious species of animals on remote islands. Also, cats and dogs are turned into animal shelters all the time. If this becomes a problem with turtles, the freeze them.
