It’s a bloodbath on #Chennai shores. In 15 days, over 350 #OliveRidley turtles have washed ashore dead between Marina to Kovalam. This rate of mortality has not been recorded in last 20 years.

It is painful to watch mother turtles meeting such a death. @NewIndianXpress @tnforestdept @CSG_TN @IndiaCoastGuard @TAMILNADUFISHE2 @moefcc @mkstalin @CMOTamilnadu @byadavbjp @tntourismoffcl @ttdcofficial @Chief_Secy_TN @ChennaiRains
