The coast of Odisha is the largest mass nesting site for the Olive Ridley turtles, followed by coasts of Mexico & Costa Rica. Over 600000 turtles nested along the coast of Odisha in 1 week. Turtles didn't return to Rushikulya rookery in Ganjam district of Odisha for their annual mass nesting this year. The forest dept said it was too soon to ascertain the exact cause of them not coming to the beach.
