Abstract

Though sea turtles have been the focus of conservation attention and scientific research for decades, much about these ancient animals is still unknown to us. This is particularly true of the mass nesting populations in Orissa. Foremost amongst these questions is where do these turtles migrate after they have nested in large numbers on the coast of Orissa ? Sea turtles are known to migrate thousands of kilometres across international waters. Satellite telemetry is now being used to track olive ridley turtles which nest on the coast of Orissa to study their long range migrations and foraging areas.
