Hi Nauti. How great, your own visiting manatees. That is wonderful. Do they recognize you? When you put out the lettuce do they come up to get it? Marvelous! Did anyone (historicaly like early settlers/Indians) ever try to eat one? Just wondering if they would taste a little fishy or would they (taste like chicken). heh heh ;9}

See Post #51 for manatee cuisine.

I live in Manatee County. Some folks around here pay big bucks to have manatee mailboxes like this:

mid-range version $649

p.s. I don't think they use real manatee parts for the mailboxes either.
