Cantor's soft shell turtle at about two years oldWhen Gilly's parents were here we took the opportunity to visitthe recently opened Mekong Tutle Conservation Centre, about an hour and a half by motorbike from our house. It was a great experience, not least because we got to get to grips with many of the turtles they're working to protect.
