Florida Manatees: Not Native, Recent Arrivals, Study Finds
Researchers found Florida manatees migrated north in significant numbers only after the Little Ice Age, challenging previous assumptions and potentially influencing conservation efforts focused on creating new warm-water refuges as fossil fuel plants close.
