so i've went on google to search for turtle names :D and found this website with .... idontknow... 200...300 [scientific] names for turtles. i went to images with those name and they look pretty rare to me, but at a certain place. like annamemys annamensis is a Vietnamese Leaf Turtle. the leaf in the name would be the way the shell looks. it looks pretty vietnamese to me (; or batagur baska is a giant Asian turtle. it has a longer nose! i never saw a turtle with that kind of nose xD ill just name one more: Sacalia quadriocellata is a four-eyed turtle. they gave that turtle that name because it has 4 yellow dots on top of it's head and 4 black dots in the center of those yellow dots. i almost thought it actually had four eyes!

so my question would be- are turtles, like these, rare? or is it just not often found at a place like a vietnamese leaf turtle in vietnam. or a japenese pond turtle in japan. indeed- i am very interested in turtles :) ill learn more about them when i have time on weekends. ROAWR- thanks for answering if you did >o<"
