I think people have a right to be offended by this? I live in a country where sea-turtles are endangered because of the fact that they were hunted for their shells as a luxury item. And now we are at a place where we may completely lose them and we cannot afford to since turtles play a vital role in balancing the ecosystem. While ghost nets (also because of humans) are the biggest threat to them, it also doesn’t help to have them hunted for their shells. Of a thousand eggs only one makes it to adulthood. It would be a shame, if this animal species that has existed for over a 100 million years, became extinct because fucking Karen needed a holder for her straws.
That being said, I don’t recognize the shell pattern so I’m not even entirely sure this is a type of turtle or tortoise? Regardless making straw holders out of animal parts is creepy if nothing else
Well they probably ate the turtles. Turtle can be really good eating. It's a bit weird to use the shell as a straw dispenser but no more strange than some other kind of animal bone.

They're ridiculously expensive and difficult to purchase but damn, eating them makes life worth living.
