*** About Manatees: Manatees, often referred to as sea cows, are large marine mammals known for their serene nature and slow-paced lifestyle. Found in shallow coastal areas and rivers, they spend up to half their day sleeping submerged, surfacing for air routinely. Despite their size, manatees are herbivores, feeding primarily on a variety of underwater vegetation. They are crucial to their ecosystem, helping to keep aquatic plants in check. Due to their low reproductive rates and slow growth, they are vulnerable to threats such as habitat loss, pollution, and boat collisions. Conservation efforts are vital to the survival of these gentle giants, whose populations are at risk in many of their native habitats.:
