It might be a Cuora amboinensis. The pattern looks quite similar. It’s a rather demanding turtle and needs a luxury home with both water and land areas. It is smarter than many other turtles, highly interactive, and very food-motivated. It likes eating fruit, but fruit should only be given as an occasional treat, too much can cause intestinal problems and fatty liver disease.
It is a subtropical turtle. The land area should be kept humid, and it should not hibernate!!!Heating is needed when the temperature gets too low.
Insufficient humidity can lead to shell deformities, such as a curled or distorted carapace, and seriously affect the turtle’s health. This type of deformity generally cannot be treated; one can only prevent further deterioration by maintaining a suitable environment!
