There is no easy way to put it—manatees are in great danger. In 2021 we saw record-breaking manatee deaths in Florida, and 2022 wasn’t much better. In fact, over the past two years, more than 25% of Florida’s manatee population has died. These gentle giants need our help. With Manatee Appreciation Day in just two days, please take action with Ocean Conservancy to help protect these gentle giants of the sea. Putting an animal on the endangered species list allows federal and local governments to put measures and regulations in place that protect imperiled species and the ecosystems upon which they depend.
