Research Reveals Florida Manatees Are Not Native to the Region

Credited from: THEGUARDIAN

  • Manatees, long beloved in Florida, are revealed to be non-native newcomers according to research from USF and GWU.
  • The findings challenge previous assumptions about these threatened species and their historical presence in Florida.
  • Historical climate conditions, such as the little ice age, limited manatee presence before the mid-1800s.
  • Recent conservation efforts aim to restore warm-water refuges critical for the survival of manatees amid ongoing habitat loss.
  • The US Fish and Wildlife Service is reassessing manatee status, reflecting on challenges posed by climate change and habitat recovery.
