Manatees

Manatees
 
We went to Manatee Park.  It is in Fort Myers.  There is a river there that the manatees like to come to when the weather is cold.  The water there is warm because there is a hydro plant there that lets off warm water into the river. 
 
We saw five manatees at least. Manatees are relatives to elephants. They are mammals. Manatees weigh 800 to 1200 pounds. Manatees can hear from far away. Manatees usually stay to the surface of the ocean because they need air to survive. A manatees mouth and flippers are the like the elephants. Manatees eat sea grass, marina algae, turtle grass, alligator weed, water lettuce and musk grass. Manatees live alone the only relationship it has is with his or her mother. They live with their mother for 1-2 years after birth.
 
 
 Manatees are an endangered species. They are endangered because of the limited food supply and how humans have treated them.  Years ago, humans hunted Manatees for food, and oil. It is illegal to hunt Manatee but many Manatee are killed by boats.  In Florida, it is law to slow down in known Manatee areas and there is even a Save the Manatee Club.
