Yes, painted turtles are sometimes hunted, primarily for their meat and shells, and they may also be collected for the pet trade. However, in many regions, they are protected by laws that regulate or prohibit hunting to ensure their conservation. Habitat loss and pollution pose more significant threats to their populations than hunting. Overall, awareness and protection efforts are essential for their survival.
