Christmas Eve Memorial for Manatees
Manatee Memorial FacebookTragically, manatees continue to die of boat injuries, starvation and illnesses resulting from Florida's toxic sewage and chemical polluted waters, which is why stronger protections for manatees are needed IMMEDIATELY and government sanctioned polluting must be stopped.
