    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I was wondering what the legal issues on having a bog turtle were? Where are they illegal or are they illegal everywhere and are they legal if they are captive bred or such? Any information on federal issues with the bog turtles would be helpful.

Thanks,

Jonathan
 
If a Bog Turtle is bred in a state that does not protect them,they are legal.But you must be able to prove that parents were collected before they went on the ESA list(97,I think)There are no states where Bogs are found that do not have State as well as Federal protection.
