You will hear people say this turtle is extinct. It isn’t. The four-eyed turtle is just holding on in the remote mountain streams of Vietnam and southern China. The vivid false eyes on the back of its head act as a decoy to confuse predators. Poachers and severe habitat loss almost wiped them out completely. But they are still out there, hiding in the forest pools.
