What kind of turtle has high economic value?

The economic value of turtles mainly includes the following three aspects:

1. In ancient China, watching turtles was a symbol of good luck and longevity. Ancient people often used tortoise shell divination, that is, turtles were very spiritual animals. It was not until after the Yuan Dynasty that the turtle had an ominous meaning. In later generations, this ominous meaning gradually faded. Nowadays, the tortoise has won the love of many urbanites with its peculiar shape, steady temperament and strong physique, and occupies a place among ornamental animals. For example, the money turtle is a very beautiful freshwater turtle. Even for small turtles, the current market price is 1 10,000 yuan per turtle. And all kinds of artificially bred green turtles are more attractive and can be used as advanced gifts for relatives and friends. Turtles enjoy a high reputation in Japan. At present, Japan imports tens of thousands of small scarabs (turtles) from China every year. Due to the pull of domestic and international market demand, the demand for soft-shelled turtle has an increasing trend.
