history: My pet turtle died. My pet turtle died. Oh no! I am so sorry- Turtles need a lot of care to thrive
current: Usually they're not too maintenence intensive.
next: Actually they are, that is why so many die in captivity..They need proper lights and diet etc..I guess if you know how to take care of animals then no- but so many just don't care when they have a pet who relies on them
