:Isn't it illegal to sell turtle shells and elephant tusks?? illegal. Please read this and please correct me if I'm wrong. Thank you.

Elaphant tusks require a Cites permit, from the center for trade in endagered species, and snapping turtles are not protected, and dapending on state laws, can be sold -
