TL;DR: In this article, the results of a structured questionnaire survey concerning the ecology and distribution of R. swinhoei in Vietnam were reported. But the survey was conducted with 10 former hunters with several years of experience in catching this species, and there was considerable consensus among the hunters regarding several aspects of the biology of this species.

TL;DR: The first-of-ever natural history data on this highly threatened gecko species is provided, with emphasis on morphometrics, habitat preferences, thermal ecology, and activity patterns.

TL;DR: For example, Nguyen et al. as mentioned in this paper studied the social and economic contexts of breeding turtles in farms for offering them in the food market and found that the typical owner of P. steindachneri farms is a self-made man who had enjoyed very little management and support from government for his/her business.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present exciting new discoveries in Vietnam about the historical presence of R. swinhoei in Vietnam as well as the potential new locality of presence in the wild, which will help to accelerate scientific endeavors in order to save Rafetus from extinction.
