A family friend runs an aquatic wholesaling business that sells exclusively to local aquatic stores across the region. I decided to keep two after bringing in the final group.

So these are hobbyists who get the turtles? They'll be pets?

I meant to say frogs--working on a piece with turtles--have turtles on the brain:)

Yes, for ethical reasons, the wholesaler only supplies local independent pet stores. None of the frogs are sent for experimentation or anything like that (labs/universities usually buy from xenopus.com or have their own in-house program, especially now that they're no longer used in pregnancy test and are primarily used in embryonic experiments).

Thank you! I respect and appreciate that :)
