From Reuters:

After months of trying, a team of experts at Schoenbrunn Zoo in Vienna has managed to successfully breed one of the most endangered species of turtle, the Batagur Baska, in captivity for the first time. Jim Drury reports.

Thats so lovely, good on the Zoo, I never knew about that breed or that there were so few of them. I really like Turtles, for me there is something really cute about them and very prehistoric.
