eat or not to eat turtles?


I came to a grocery store in Chinatown near where I live and I saw this store also selling live turtles with other seafoods and meat, ready to be butchered. Eating turtle seems very strange for me, while it is very common for Chinese culture in the name of having good sex drive and maintain good health. I wonder if selling turtles for food consumption is legal in US since turtle often seen as endangered species world wide.

I found the link that show how a guy butchered these turtles in one grocery store in Chicago Chinatown, I thought it kinda cruel :(
