The Burmese roofed turtle (Batagur trivittata) is one of six species of turtle in the genus Batagur of the Geoemydidae family.^[1] It is endemic to Myanmar, but was believed to be extinct until rediscovered in 2002.^[3] It remains very rare in the wild, but a conservation project has been successful and several hundred are now kept in the Yadanabon Zoological Gardens in Mandalay and a turtle conservation center in Lawkananda Park, Bagan.^[3]

An individual was seen in 2007 in Qingping Market in Guangzhou, China.^[4]
