Flordia's Endangered Manatee

http://ezinearticles.com/?Floridas-Endangered-Manatee&id=355117 This article explains the importance of Manatees to the state of Florida, what's causing them to be endangered, and what we can do to prevent it. Many people are violating the strict laws that are set to protect West Indian Manatees. Sadly, because Manatees don't have many natural predators, humans are their largest threat.

  3. This was a really nice article to read. It had all the basic information I needed to understand the topic but it wasn't too long, detailed, or wordy. Good job!

  4. Awesome blog! Are all kinds of manatees endangered?! Or is it mainly the West Indian manatee? And I think the Cincinnati Zoo released one of our manatees to the wild a while ago, that might also be a cool thing to think about!
