Abstract
The main rookeries in Orissa are at Gahirmatha, Rushikulya and Devi River mouth, of which Gahirmatha is the largest, with over 100,000 turtles in most years and 600,000 in some years. However, there has been no mass nesting at this beach during the past two seasons. An additional concern at Gahirmatha is that the major nesting beach was fragmented during a cyclonic storm in 1989 and nesting has since been restricted to a 4 km island known as Ekakulanasi.
