The Olive Ridley sea turtle nesting season has commenced along the Andhra Pradesh coast, a vital breeding ground for the vulnerable species. Wildlife enthusiasts are concerned by the discovery of several turtle carcasses, likely due to entanglement in fishing nets. Authorities are planning to establish nesting zones and collaborate with conservation groups on hatcheries, while also addressing concerns about artificial lighting impacting nesting sites. Stricter enforcement of fishing regulations is also being called for.
