Rushikulya, a well known arribada nesting site, is located north of the Rushikulya River mouth and close to the fishing villages of Purnabandha, Gokharkuda and Katigada (Bateswar). Olive ridley sea turtles have been observed to nest almost every year (Das and Kar, 1990; Pandav et al., 1994; Sankar et al., 2004; Tripathy 2008) since the discovery of this rookery SOLITARY NESTING AND MORTALITY OF OLIVE RIDLEY SEA TURTLES ALONG THE GANJAM COAST OF ODISHA, INDIA SUBRATA KUMAR BEHERA# & CHANDRASEKHAR KAR Integrated Coastal Zone Management Project, Bhubaneswar , India # subb92@gmail.com (Pandav et al., 1994).
