| Abstract |
|
Many Asian species of freshwater turtles have the reputation of poor survival in captivity. Geoemyda spengleri, the Black-breasted Leaf Turtle, is one such attractor of this type of recognition. We have found that by following aggressive prophylactic measures and by providing them with proper care and a large, wellplanted vivarium, this species fares well in captivity. We have found this species to be alert, inquisitive, and quite docile in captivity and it should prove to be a very popular captive species.
