Every December Olive Ridleys amass in arribadas on shores of Gahirmatha.
(Your skin is getting wrinklier, smiles toothless. You look funny
with your carapace popping as you stoop as if on a Zimmer frame.)
Every year these sea turtles die in transit being hit by fishing trawlers.
(I want you to hold my hand as we cross the road.
And please don't get groceries or anything by yourself.)
IUCN categories Olive Ridleys as vulnerable species about to get endangered.
Footage of hatched baby turtles scuttling towards the sea.
And a few motherless poor things become canine feast.
(I am scared. Please don't leave me alone.)
(Appeared on Kritya)
