 The species has produced hybrids with the Malayan Box Turtle in captivity.In addition, the supposed new species "Ocadia glyphistoma" has turned out to be the offspring of a male Chinese stripe-necked turtle and a female of the present species; it might have been taken from the wild or also have been captive-bred.Captive Vietnamese pond turtles - which are occasionally available to experienced hobbyists, under the auspices of the IUCN-coordinated captive-breeding program - must therefore never be housed with related species.
