Video by joelsartore / Myanmar, where this Burmese peacock softshell turtle is found, supports one of the most diverse groups of chelonians (turtles, terrapins, and tortoises) in Southeast Asia. As a group, softshell turtles are in high demand by Chinese wildlife markets, and as a result many populations have experienced steep declines. Thankfully conservation organizations are working to preserve species like this one through assurance colonies to produce individuals that can one day be released into the wild. Video taken zoowroclaw. To see a still of this species follow me, joelsartore. #turtle #burmese #peacock #PhotoArk #savetogether
