Abstract
The Olive Ridley nests at three major rookeries in Orissa, of which Gahirmatha is the largest rookery in the world today with over 100,000 nesting turtles. However, there has been no nesting at this rookery for the past two years. Much of the decline of the nesting population can be attributed to illegal trawl fishing operations, particularly shrimp trawling, in the nearshore waters of Gahirmatha and other coastal areas of Orissa.
