on 10/1/2007 Great article.

Turtles can be fun but you HAVE to make time for them like any other pet. I adopted mine from my cousin (one year younger than me) who completely neglected it and it was in pretty bad shape when I got it.

Make sure if you're going to get a turtle you read up as much as you can on their requirements BEFORE you think of buying one!

Also you need to understand that turtles are actually descendants of dinosaurs thus they have huge life spans. My red-eared terapin is expected to live up to 80 years!
