What keeps the 'underwater prairies' thriving?
In the shallow waters of Palk Bay, hues of emerald gleam as sunlight streams through the ocean’s tides. A closer gaze into the water reveals an enchanting world—a bustling town of fish, sea slugs, turtles, crabs, sea cucumbers, shrimps, squids, and seahorses, perhaps even dolphins and dugongs navigating through the blades of green grass. That’s the view the planet’s third most-valued ecosystem—the seagrass meadow—has to offer.

Saving sea turtles, one egg at a time
For decades, fishing communities in Kasarkod Tonka in Honnavar taluk of Uttara Kannada district hid from the outside world the visits of ‘divine guests’ to their coasts. Fishers feared revealing the identity could pose a threat to the visitors’ breeding sites on the beaches. “We worship these olive ridley sea turtles as an incarnation of Lord Vishnu. Our ancestors knew about their visit during breeding season, between December and February. Neither did we harm them nor inform anyone,” says Ganapati Tandel, President of Freshwater Fishers’ Association, Honnavar.
