Manatees do not have teeth in the traditional sense. Instead, they have a series of continuously growing, flat molars that are used to grind vegetation. These molars are replaced throughout the manatee's life as they become worn down.
Manatees do not need to clean their teeth as they primarily feed on vegetation, which does not leave behind food particles that can get stuck in their teeth. However, manatees may occasionally ingest small amounts of gravel or sand along with their food, which can help to keep their molars clean and free of debris. Additionally, manatees are known to rub their faces and mouths on hard surfaces, such as rocks or dock pilings, which can also help to remove any buildup on their molars.

Manatees are very curious animals, and sometimes engage in "flossing" behavior on that of anchor lines of boats. This could be a genuine way for manatees to clean their teeth. Manatees also have mouths filled with sensitive hair-like projections called vibrisae. For that matter, it could also be something that just feels good to a manatee. Also, as manatees don't have anything to "brush" their teeth per say, but they do have a very unique adaptation with their teeth that as they wear down from grinding down coarse sea-grasses, they can fall out, and will be replaced from the back of their jaw and the others will move one space forward; this can be achieved throughout the entire life of the manatee. This adaptation is called "marching molars"
No they do not. They may taste another manatee's however but it is thought that by doing so they can tell this way if another animal is sexually mature.
I would imagine so, Would you eat your own poop?
no you did
sometimes
YES.
Having lived on a dairy for a period of time, I've never seen a cow eat its own poop (aka: cow pie). So no, I don't believe cows eat their own poop.
Sharks eat manatees and SOME people kill them.
no they do not eat their poop they eat the mud so when they poop the mud i gets more nutrients when the worm digests the mud it becomes fertilizer or compost for plants. hope this helps :)
Pigs the dirty creatures
No. ...but he did quit the fire department
Their own poop and diarrhea with a little salt and pepper
Manatees are mainly herbivores, but have been known to eat small fish.
I think they eat dirt and grass... Maybe their own poop. Hahaha :)
