Hello, turtle friend.

The months-old blob seen above is an Asian giant softshell turtle. Scientists long thought This species was extinct in the Cambodian portion of the Mekong River — until they discovered some stragglers in the early 2000s.

Since then, conservation groups have worked with local communities and officials to boost the wild population of these endangered turtles. A team recently released 150 hatchlings back into their natural habitat, bringing the running total to more than 7,700 baby turtles in the past 10 years.
