Crystal River, Three Sisters Springs, February 2010: This young manatee was playing with me for some five minutes. What really made me sick: During my one week stay at Crystal River I saw so many snorkellers, u/w photographers and -videographers who - although strictly forbidden - were chasing, harassing and diving down to the manatees. This guy (or girlie??) here came up to me to play while I was drifting motionless on the surface. Obviously, we both enjoyed it!

Manatee's are naturally curious animals, they swim up to anyone usually unless they were badly treated by humans earlier. What makes me sick are the speed boats with motors that go through that area and disfigure manatees all the time. It's disgusting, and a lot of tourists blow it off.

Robb KingInTheNorth Stark Well... As long as they're "ugly" it's fine mutilating them and cutting off half their tails and other such horrible injuries via speed boat. That justifies it completely. I totally take by my comment. Thanks for informing me. No wonder there's a ton of environmentalists not throwing a fit about it, or a ton of laws trying to be passed and signs and manatee rescues. Because they're "ugly" and deserve to be hit by speed boats and have permanent injuries done to them where they can barely swim. Thanks for clearing that up, it makes it much clearer. (Sarcasm, btw.)

+Kailua Kona I live locally to Three Sisters Springs....it's pretty damn hard to go there and NOT have manatees come up to you. If it was so illegal they'd just shut it down completely. They only recently did it as they huddled in a swarm to stay warm. They are curious and will come to you. Yea you can't go chasing after them but the point is you wont have to. Thankfully their numbers are on the rise as boaters are finally slowing tf down and not running over them =(

RoboTekno It ain't that hard to just mount a cage or duct around the propeller. Don't understand why everyone doesn't do it, since it makes it safer for divers and snorkellers as well as marine life.
@RoboTekno
@RoboTekno 9 жыл бұрын
lancer D Hmm, a duct or cage would be a little better. The best solution would probably be a jet nozzle such as on a personal watercraft like Jet Skis or Seadoos since there are no protrusions, just a hole into the hull. Although the down side is an open propeller is much more efficient then these jet nozzles. Also the drag of a cage or even a duct around a propeller produces considerable drag at higher speeds. Although ducts produce more static thrust when not moving or at low speeds, once up to speed, the duct starts to produce more drag than an open propeller would. So I guess if you want to same manatees and still enjoy watercraft, get a Seadoo :-P
@lancerd4934
@lancerd4934 9 жыл бұрын
RoboTekno The thing about jets is, they aren't really an aftermarket modification, Ducts and cages are something that is easy to add to an existing outboard. I didn't know that the extra thrust from ducts reduces at speed, so thanks for teaching me something new. The other option of course is to restrict water traffic over seagrass beds so that watercraft have to detour around.

Your interaction with this little one was commendable, not grabbing at it, just responding to its interaction with you. Like I said....I envy you. Swimming with manatees is on my bucket list. :-) Thanks for posting your video.

I enjoyed the video especially the way the manatee used his/her flippers and mouth to satisfy his/her curosity about your hand....You were given such a gift to experience this, perhaps the manatee chose to interact with you simply because you gave him/her space to choose when, why and for how long they did.

Should’ve been named, “Manatee Attack- Manatee tries to adorably nibble on my fingers”

It’s so cute, it’s not trying to attack you, it’s trying to play with you. They get so much hate when honestly they are my favorites and are so incredibly sweet and docile. They would never hurt you maybe swim away but not hurt you. This friendly creature was just curious!

Even if what he was doing was illegal, it's not really amoral. He wasn't pursuing the manatee or anything. The manatee came to him.

This is where the manatee shows that its species is evolving into the iron fisted alpha species they were destined to be. Hail to the manatees!!!

Aww. Manatees are the cutest. They're sorta like that uncle you're kind of afraid of at first because he's big and hairy (and, also, because they sorta look like walruses and walruses are assholes), but then you get to know him and he's actually just really big and cute. Officially adding manatees to my list of favorite animals.

I ran into an older gentleman about 20 years ago in the American Legion in Gulfport Florida. He told me his family and Neighbors would hunt manatee together in Ruskin Florida during the Depression and World War II. He said it was out of necessity for the need of food. He also told me they were absolutely delicious sort of a cross between beef and pork and even better tasting then either one of them. He had a lot of interesting stories of what Florida was like almost a hundred years ago or so.

WOW! You really should add a warning in the title! Such graphic brutality and violence can easily disturb the minds of young children across the globe!!! Also, that was a great video, but now I want a couple for my backyard pool. Such gentle blubber filled giants they are.

This is a manatee not a hippo , and not a very big one at that, it doesn't have the teeth to tear a arm off, besides manatees are more docile than sheep
