The Gentle Giant of the Sea

One of the coolest and most docile animals I've never met...the manatee. I am really not sure what it is that I like about the manatee so much, but I feel fairly safe assuming that I would love hanging out with this friendly animal.

In all seriousness, who wouldn't want to go for a swim with these two? Plus, bonus, manatees actually encounter grave circumstances when they venture into waters that are too cold, so wherever you would swim with them would be sure to be some warmer water! Manatees are mammals that are primarily herbivores and dine on various types of plant species. Sometimes called the "sea cow", they earn their nickname from both their appearance and their diet. Aside from the "sea cow" manatees are also sometimes called the "gentle giant" because of their demeanor and docile attitude.

Anyway, this isn't really informative or helpful, just a small statement of my love for the gentle giant of the sea!
