Manatee by Robin Lee Makowski

        I relished paddling  a canoe slowly near in manatee habitat.    We saw a manatee  feeding and  swimming slightly below the surface.   It was large, peaceful, and mysterious.     Manatees graze on sea grass  in the shallows in Florida.  Threats to manatees:  collisions with power boats; red tides caused by  sewage and fertilizer runoff; and algae blooms that  block the sun from reaching the sea grass (which manatees depend on to eat).

"The Manatee is a mammal like us. It has a brain and a nervous system, much like ours, but the manatee will not fight, even to protect itself or  save its young.  It injures no other vertebrate creature.  Surely there is some use in contemplating this uniquely blameless life."- Faith McNulty
