That must have been one hell of a swim!

I found the story very interesting, LB. I especially found this factoid enlightening:
"The Florida manatee typically is found in Florida..."

J/k...thanks for sharing the article.

Critter related - did you see the article about the penguins in Brazil that ended up hundreds of miles north of where they were supposed to be? They were disoriented and hungry. The Brazilian gov't rounded them up, nursed them back to health, then flew them all back to their proper place in a C-130. I think about 300 of the 600 survived the ordeal.
