The Florida Manatee
From two scientists who have been at the forefront of manatee research for over three decades, The Florida Manatee offers an engaging, accessible introduction to manatee biology, including communication, diet, long-distance migration, and much more.
This second edition is updated with new scientific research, as well as discussions of recent conservation efforts – largely driven by manatee injuries and deaths resulting from boat collisions – that have contributed to the robust growth of manatee numbers in Florida. It also includes the latest predictions for manatee populations and health in the future, both in Florida and worldwide. This is the perfect book for anyone seeking the most comprehensive, current information on this fascinating marine mammal.
Roger L. Reep is a neuroscientist and emeritus professor in the College of Veterinary Medicine at the University of Florida. Robert K. Bonde is a research biologist and scientist emeritus with the U.S. Geological Survey Sirenia Project.
