I do not support this petition
 

I strongly oppose this petition for turtle excluders. This is simply a scam with a lack of true science. It is a money grab for those who want grants to study and those who have a patent on the device. I have spoken to many crabbers and not one of them has ever caught turtles. I love to eat crabs and support those who work to catch them for me. The consumer. This would cause such an economic hardship on crabbers. I do not support!
