In Real Life
West Indian Manatee (Trichechus manatus), also known as the North American Manatee, is a large, aquatic mammal native to warm coastal areas of the Caribbean, from the eastern United States to northern Brazil. Living alone or in herds, it feeds on underwater plants and uses its whiskers to navigate. The average West Indian Manatee is about 2.7–3.5 m (8.9–11.5 ft) long and weighs 200–600 kg (440–1,320 lb), with females generally larger than males. The largest individual on record weighed 1,655 kg (3,649 lb) and measured 4.6 m (15 ft) long. Manatees are estimated to live 50 years or more in the wild, and one captive Florida Manatee, Snooty, lived for 69 years (1948–2017).
West Indian Manatee mostly live in shallow coastal areas, including rivers and estuaries. They can withstand large changes in salinity and are found in both freshwater and saltwater. Manatees has extremely low metabolic rate and lack of a thick layer of insulating body fat limits them to locations with warm waters, including tropical regions.
