: Do you think there are enough bloodlines of Egyptian, Burmese Star, Radiated, or Black tortoise (just to mention a few) in either of our respective countries to truly sustain them in captivity for an extended period of time?

Do you not think that all torts would be better off in their natural environment, as nature intended?
Only greed of man has sought to profit from these ancient animals.
Sure there is enough bloodlines, how long do you intend to be around.
IF any bloodlines run out, good, nature looks after it's own, & I'm sure by then intra-country dealing via zoos etc will have taken over the cb situation..
If we act now there will be enough stock to last 100-200yrs, are you bothered about cb stock at the end of this period?
