Turtle with wishes, addresses written on shell found on Busan coast

A large turtle believed to be an invasive species was found on the Busan coast with wishes, names and addresses written across its shell, local media reported. The 30-centimeter turtle was spotted by a 70-year-old local resident surnamed Kim in Gijang-gun, northeastern Busan, at around 7 a.m. on Sunday, according to Yonhap News Agency. An animal rights activist said the turtle appears to have been used as part of a wish-making ritual. Sim In-seop, head of the animal welfare group Live in Freedom
