| Text_Body | 46,000 acres of seagrass have disappeared throughout the Indian River Lagoon. That’s 58 percent of the seagrass that was in the lagoon in 2009. Manatees are dying with nothing in their stomachs, because there is nothing for them to eat. In December, January and February, more than 400 manatees died. By comparison, 405 died in all of 2015. |
