Olive Ridley turtle...dead. This was the inspiration for my tune "Olive Ridley's Lament". On a beach in Orissa there were dozens and dozens of visible dead turtles, not to mention the ones we could not see in the water and further along the miles of beach. They get caught in fishing nets or eat plastic that is floating in the sea and die. Their numbers are further decreasing from habitat loss and breeding disruption. There is some sort of marking on its back which is supposed to be a numbering system of some sort.
