Abstract

The earliest reports of marine turtles in Tamilnadu in southern India are found in Tamil Sangam literature (circa 4 th century A.D.), from a poem which describes a nesting turtle (Sanjivaraj 1958). Olive ridley turtles nest along much of the Tamilnadu coast and may also forage in the Gulf of Mannar in southern Tamilnadu.
