If I had a magic, divine sword and some stupid turtle stole it I'd make sure it went extinct!
Look what happened: A giant turtle emerged while Le Loi was boating on the lake and told him to return the sword to the Dragon King. The weapon shot from its sheath into the mouth of the turtle, which disappeared underwater. The Asian Turtle Conservation Network says as many as 15 million turtles are traded a year in Asia, most of them ending up in China. Greedy Dragon King! On a serious note, them finding that turtle is cool news! Now if we could only find the Dodo, passenger pigeon, tasmanian tiger... big foot...
