They are 500 pounds. Their habitat is shallow, coast waters, rivers, springs and lakes. Manatees eat 100 plants a day. When their old teeth fall out new ones come in quickly. The babies are born in the spring. They have one baby at a time. They squeak to communicate. 
They all swim. They get to be 60 years old. Don’t pollute because it kills the manatees. There are only 2,600 left. 
Dutch translation will be added soon.
