On the 16 th March 2012 the Turtle Conservation Center (TCC) in Cuc Phuong National Park received a Keeled box turtle (Cuora mouhotii) from the Asian Turtle Program (ATP) in Hanoi. The turtle was handed in by a student that had found this individual in Nho Quan Town (Ninh Binh province), a town close to Cuc Phuong National Park. As the animal appeared healthy and was in close proximity to its believed native habitat the animal was released back into the forest.
