I know hundreds and thousands... no joke. I belong to two turtle chat forums with thousands of members each. Snakes and lizards are most popular by far, but the turtle hobby is quite popular and a huge business.
As for people I know and I have met who keep turtles, about 70-80 people. I keep over 20 turtkes right now. I used to breed and cared for over 75 different turtles and tortoises.

I know of 2. Many people stopped getting turtles when they connected turtles with salmonella.

We had a couple turtles in our pond. But they ran away from home that's OK though cuz they do eat baby fish.
