Manatee
(Sirenian Trichechus )

The West Indian Manatee is the gentlest of creatures. They are
herbivores which means they only eat vegetation. Manatees can reach
a length of 10 feet and weigh up to 1,400 pounds. This species is
on the Endangered Species List. There are only about 2000 manatees
left in the USA. Many are killed by boats. Recent research suggests
that manatees do not hear boat motors under the water and therefore
do not know to get out of the way.
