摘要
We report on deaths of Olive ridley turtle (Lepidochelys olivacea) at the Pudupettai beach on the Tamilnadu coast of India. The study was conducted during the period of January 2021 to March 2021. A total of 29 dead Olive Ridley turtle was counted and almost all the deaths caused due to unnatural incidents. Direct evidences of fatal injuries were observed on the body parts. As well as, evidences of pollutants were found on the beach.
