The Zoological Survey of India has started tagging endangered olive ridleys to track their migration path in the off-shore waters of Odisha on Tuesday.
The ZSI scientists took six turtles floating in the deep water of the Bay of Bengal and attached the tags made of aluminum before releasing them back in the sea.
