Happy Mother’s Day May 13, 2018

Happy Mother’s Day

Our mama manatee and her calf are gliding through the crystal waters of Three Sisters Springs in Florida. We hope these two remind you of a mother’s love. If you call home for Mother’s Day, here’s some trivia you can share to make mom proud: In 2017, the Florida manatee was reclassified from endangered to threatened in acknowledgment of improvements in its population.
