Background SAGOR KONNA-2,we named third tracking sea turtle, its newly matured olive ridley nested at north of the Diabetic point of Cox's Bazar at late night of 11 January, 2014. Research Organization Marinelife Alliance attached SPOT5, Platform Terminal Transmitter (PTT) on her carapace on today, 12 January afternoon. The night before she laid 109 eggs. SAGOR KONNA means "DAUGHTER OF THE SEA". We hope her safe travel during the dangerous nearshore water of Bangladesh as its full of indiscriminate fishing practices. Hope she would overcome all the threats in front. There are huge number of fishing gears along the coast and far offshore area. If survive, SAGOR KONNA will uncover Olive Ridley migration route those come to Bangladesh marine waters and lay eggs on sandy rookeries like her predecessors URMEE and BASONTI. Currently Olive ridley and Green sea turtle are nesting species along the coast of Bangladesh at very suitable nesting rookeries.
