***About Manatees: Often referred to as "sea cows," manatees are large, gentle marine mammals that are found in warm coastal areas and rivers. They are known for their slow movement and peaceful demeanor. These herbivores primarily feed on algae and sea grasses. Manatees are crucial to their ecosystem, helping maintain aquatic plant populations. Unfortunately, they are vulnerable to threats such as habitat destruction, cold stress, and boat collisions. Conservation efforts, including protected areas and public awareness campaigns, play a critical role in ensuring their survival for future generations.
