OK
So me and you manage to gather us up a sack full of turtles
and we manage to sneak across the Canookian border with them...
How do we hook up with a buyer?

Heck, given the potential profit, unless the USA for some God-forsaken reason bans the export of legally taken turtles, I’d do it on the up-and-up. Tariffs can’t be that high, or can they??? I suspect the real problem would be finding an honest broker. (I actually have a Chinese relative-by-marriage who’d likely be “up for it”, and has or could get the connections, but her trustworthiness is questionable.)

I’m not actually contemplating getting into this - but if I was, I might try to work with a local outfit that exports processed Asian Carp to China. If demand looked promising, there’s a small local catfish farm that seems to be “unworked” / semi-abandoned — maybe I’d look into financing, make the owner an offer, and revamp it... (Probably I’d leave one pond intact for catfish for my family!!!) Definitely, it’s something that would need a MUCH closer / in depth look than me “brainstorming” on a Friday night”, before getting involved!
