manatee conservation

project idea
we have been learnig about manatees how they are endanged. They are getting
hurt by boats and getting hunted and the sea getting poisend and there is not
enough of food.
Collecting Information.
I got all this information from books,internet,libery.
Physical description
mantees have thick grey skin
they are related to elephants
mantees have no eyebrows. they are mammals. two front flippers for crawling. and a big paddle tail. and mantees are very fat. They have a small eye.
diet
sea grass,sea plants.
habitat
in florida south america,west india they must live in warm water with lots of sea plants.
threats
poisan in there water,getting choped up by speed boats,gettingcaught by a fishing nets.

In this project I will now use all of the informatioin I researched to design a solution, a plan to save the manatees.

My solution.

I am going to do three seprate places one place for fishing second place is for all
the boats and the third one is for the mantees to swim and eating.
These areas will be made by floating fences and signs along the coast water.
these areas will be watched manatee guards.
The money for this project will come from donations.
If the boat goes into the mantees place someone would say that is the mantees
place.
