Today, we celebrate the gentle sea cows that grace our waters and play a vital role in our marine ecosystems! 🥰🌿 Manatees are peaceful, slow-moving creatures that deserve our love and protection.
Let’s raise awareness about the threats they face—habitat destruction, boat strikes, and pollution—and commit to safeguarding their future. Together, we can help keep these incredible animals safe for generations to come!
The Belize Fund has approved two projects that support these magnificent gentle giants:
🫧 Wildtracks is helping to secure the future of Belize’s iconic manatees.
🫧 Clearwater Marine Aquarium Research Institute Belize (CMARI) is strengthening conservation efforts by improving how we protect manatees and their seagrass habitat.
Let’s continue working together to ensure a safe and thriving future for Belize’s manatees! 🌊
