There are seven types of sea turtles in the world, five of which are found in
India. The Olive Ridley turtles nest along the entire coastline of Maharashtra. Green
turtles and Hawksbills have also been found. An amazing characteristic of turtles is
that when the female turtle reaches maturity, that is, nearly after a gap of 15
years, she returns to the shore to lay her eggs at the same place where she was
born. The female comes on shore, just to make a rest in the sand and lay her eggs.
and immediately returns to the sea. She does not return to the nest after that. The
eggs hatch after a period of 45 to 50 days, using natural heat. Innumerable dangers
await the little hatchlings in the deep sea, and they have to face them all on their
own. Their survival rate is therefore as low as just one or two turtles out of a
thousand. Turtles perform an important function - they keep the sea clean. Thus,
they occupy an important place in marine ecology. Considering all these factors, it is
vital to undertake their protection on a large scale.
After the success at Velas, we started implementing the project in other
places too. Within five years, the entire coastline of Maharashtra was surveyed.
Protection was offered in eighty of the villages where turtle nests were found. Our
strategy was to engage those who had so far been involved in stealing the eggs, then
to train and involve them in the work of protection. We started the 'Turtle Friend
Awards' (Kasav Mitra) to encourage more people to be a part of the protection
campaign. (A comprehensive booklet and a short film on the protection of turtles was
prepared to spread the message.) ?​
