Meet a Manatee: Lily
First recorded in 1974, she is a favorite with both park staff and visitors, and they look for her arrival each winter season. See photos and video.
Mating Herds
Manatees do not form permanent pair bonds like some animal species. During estrus, a female can mate with one or more males in what is known as an estrous or mating herd. Learn more.
