The Chinese Soft Shelled Turtle is a species from the genus Pelodiscus from family Trionychidae. Turtle Soup is made from this species.

Distribution
China, Taiwan, Korea, Manchuria, North Vietnam, Japan. Also, after being introduced to new environments, can be found in Singapore, Thailand, Batan Islands and California.

Do not drop them or let them get hit, injuries like this and shell fungus kill these turtles very easily.
