Is it illegal to own a turtle in Canada?

Answer 1

Not exactly, though you would require a licence to own one. People usually get penny turtles. However, there areendangered species that nobody is allowed to own (except for zoos, sanctuaries, etc).

Answer 2

In some states yes. A few is NJ, NC, Texas, Tennessee, and a few more. The reason why is because it spreads salmonella. but in America as a whole its illegal to have a pet turtle under 4 in. because little children tend to pick up more. So if you want a turtle, prepare to spend a lot of money near the $100s.
