The gentle creature--Manatee

Watching Kratt Brothers'Show are becoming my most favorite time in a day! Look them with much fun playing with animals. Today's show is "Be the Creature: Expedition Manatee". It's really amazing that manatees are so gentle,peaceful,and sweet~ with little shy... Manatee and elephant are closely related. This huge mammal are herbivore. They have some unique life style to live. Manatee can't survive in cold water. So they gather together at hot spring. They can snap under the water over 20 mintues. And Manatee's life can over 60 years old. They take care their calf patiently just like human. But their life still full great risk. Because the busy boat traffic, the boats come anywhere around manatee. Those boat propellers are so dangerous to the manatee. Human should think before do. We are the only being who can save other species on the earth.
