This was a tough video to make... 💔
This was a tough video to make… 💔
It’s heartbreaking to know we won’t see Hank on the river anymore. Manatees are facing unprecedented challenges, with human activity leading to the majority of their deaths each year. By sharing his story, I hope to raise awareness of the dangers these gentle giants face and encourage everyone to do more to protect them.
Let’s work together to make our waters safer for manatees and preserve these beautiful creatures for future generations.

    Aww, and I just learned about Frank upon finding your channel today, too. The boat strikes and diseases are why I don't want to pet them like the law states and I wish more people would realize this. You made Frank's short life on earth very special.

      You’re right. Because showing manatees and alligators in a video on social media has been copyright by Garrett. You know what is more cringe than your comment, feeling the need to put down someone else’s efforts to educate and share wildlife conservation. Do better dude

    New kind of outboard motor doesn’t use a propeller blade, but a pumping system inspired by jellyfish propulsion! Manatees could still get a mast bump from them, but no more cuts!

    From an article I read a few years ago, (I don’t recall the source) when these monkeys were introduced, no one realized they could swim from the island the were introduced to. They were supposed to remain captive for visitors to view

    They are not wild they are invasive or feral. Wild implies they are in their native habitat I think.

    Dugongs on the other hand are predatory, can swim much faster and regularly hunt manatees for food.

    • @stephentorrey8727
      @stephentorrey8727 24 дня назад

      They're an endangered species. So basically doing anything at all that could possibly interfere with their natural life (like introducing and familiarizing them to human interaction) is illegal.

    • @greenbeans9748
      @greenbeans9748 2 дня назад

      If manatees get too comfortable around humans, they are at higher risk of being hit by boats which can be fatal. Touching them can also make them sick.
