Olive Ridley Mass Nesting Ecology and Egg Harvest at Ostional Beach, Costa Rica

Chelonian Conservation and Biology, 2012
Abstract The olive ridley sea turtle (Lepidochelys olivacea), a species listed by the International Union for Conservation of Nature as vulnerable, is characterized by its mass-nesting behavior, also known as arribada. For decades, this phenomenon has facilitated the utilization of this species by coastal communities, much of it illegally.
