Sea turtles under threat as Indian government weighs development in Andaman Islands
by Rosamma Thomas on 14 April 2021
Little Andaman Island is part of a rainforested archipelago far off India’s eastern coast in the Bay of Bengal.
An Indian government think tank has proposed developing the island along with another in the archipelago. If implemented, experts say the plan would pose a threat to nesting sites of leatherback sea turtles, whose population globally is declining.
The leatherback is the largest of all living turtles, and India and Sri Lanka are the only places in South Asia with large nesting populations.
