Looking Back: Turtles in India Making a Comeback

from State of the World from NPR

As we look back at our international reporters' most memorable stories of the last year we revisit the story of the olive ridley turtle in India.  Their population has rebounded after years of efforts to stem their decline.  We go to a turtle festival on India's coast and hear tourists cheer on turtle hatchlings as they head to the ocean.See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.NPR Privacy Policy
