  • Marine Turtle Newsletter, 1998, No. 80 - 1 Because a Case Is Pending in the Orissa High Court)
    Number 79 January 1998 Editors: Editorial Board: Brendan J. Godley & Annette C. Broderick Karen L. Eckert Marine Turtle Research Group Nat B. Frazer Division of Environmental and Nicholas Mrosovsky Evolutionary Biology David W. Owens Graham Kerr Building Peter C. H. Pritchard University of Glasgow James I. Richardson G12 8QQ Scotland U.K. PRESENT STATUS OF GAHIRMATHA BEACH IN BHITARA KANIKA SANCTUARY, ORISSA In 1997, the mass nesting (arribada) of the world’s largest population of olive ridley turtles (Lepidochelys olivacea) did not take place on the Gahirmatha Beach of the Bhitara Kanika Sanctuary, situated on the east coast of India in Kendrapara district of Orissa state. The silence was deafening. Generally the mass nesting takes place twice per year, once in the early part of January and again in early April; in some years, the event happens only once. While there are records of past years in which nesting failed to occur, the present situation cannot help but illicit grave concern. Historically, the pristine and remote beach at Gahirmatha has been well protected by a rich mangrove forest, and it has attained the pride of place as the site of the world’s largest sea turtle nesting event. These mass nestings, which scientists refer to as arribadas, average 2-6 lakhs females per year [ 1 lakh = one hundred thousand ], each laying more than 100-150 eggs. Despite the usual mating aggregations in October 1996 off the coast of the sanctuary, the turtles did not commence with egg-laying. What happened? Offshore fishing is one explanation. Between October and April each year, fishing is prohibited within 20 km of the coast to avoid threatening the sea turtles.
