The Florida manatee (Trichechus manatus latirostris), a subspecies of the West Indian manatee, is the largest of all living sirenians. Florida manatees inhabit the most northern limit of sirenian habitats. These manatees are found in freshwater rivers, in estuaries, and in the coastal waters of the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic Ocean. Florida manatees may live to be more than 28 years old in the wild, and one captive manatee, "Snooty", has lived for over 60 years. Order: Sirenia, Family: Trichechidae, Genus: Trichechus, Species: Trichechus manatus, Subspecies: Trichechus manatus latirostris (Harlan, 1824). |
