I was just passing by Eko Hotel and saw some men by the corner of the road with this huge turtle. They told me it was captured at the Bar Beach and they want to sell it. smiley

Yes, but it would rather hide in its shlll than attack you if you poke it. It's a very shy animal

Not yet sold. I think people are scared of it. I didn't price it. If you need it you can go there now. Just in front of Eko Hotel
