How do we feed our manatees? The manatees in our care typically consume anywhere from 100 to 300 pounds of lettuce a day. We offer lettuce in different ways, first using bottom feeders to mimic rooted plants these manatees will encounter in the wild. Secondly, we place heads of lettuce gently on the surface to mimic floating vegetation. Both of these methods help prepare the manatees in our care to return to the wild. #MustSeeInManatee #Bishop #Manatee #ManateeAwarenessMonth | The Bishop Museum

Manatees eating mangrove leaves at the water's edge. Manatees eat any kind of vegetation they can find or reach, not just sea grass. During high tides they are often able to reach lawn grass and other vegetation. The mothers will sometimes reach out and bring branches down into the water for the calves to reach the leaves. Some of the scratches you see on manatees are from pushing their way through mangrove trees and root systems. #nature #animals #Awesome #wildlife #florida #naturephotography |

Did you know a single manatee can eat up to 100 pounds of vegetation every day? That’s like polishing off an entire salad bar — and then going back for seconds! 🥬 These gentle giants rely on a steady diet of leafy greens to stay healthy, especially during the cooler months when they gather in Florida’s warm spring waters. Thanks to the incredible generosity of Delores Barr Weaver through the Delores Barr Weaver Legacy Funds, our state parks can continue to provide exceptional care for Florida’s

This is what happens when you’re federally protected, have zero natural predators, and spend your days eating sea grass and bothering snorkelers. Manatees are gentle giants, super curious, and yes… they really will swim up just to say hi.
