Nesting of olive ridley turtles have been reported frequently along Visakhapatnam coast but there are few reports of leatherback turtle along this coast. On 10th September, 2016, a leatherback turtle Dermochelys coriacea accidentally entangled in a monofilament gill net operated by a country craft at 30 to 40 m depths at Mutyalammapalem about 50 km south of Visakhapatnam, was brought to the landing centre by fishermen. Later it was released back into the sea. Not Available |
