Absolutely! I highly recommend a Manatee,especially if you live in an apartment, they are perfect because they don't need a lot of room or exercise. Just a large tank and about 3 tonnes of turtle grass to keep them fed. Manatees don't like to be alone at night so make sure you put the tank in your room so they don't feel lonely. Manatees are very social so keep them connected to your social circle by keeping their Facebook and Twitter feeds updated daily.

I hope you enjoy your Manatee! : )

Yes,

Manatees face constant hazard in the enviorment they live in. Their biggest problem is with humans. Fishing nets get tangled around their bodies and they cannot untangle themselves. Manatees must come up for air and because of the net they cannot swim and may drown. Manatees are also often hit by motors from boats leaving gashes on their bodies and sometimes severing a flipper. manatees should be protected from the harmful events they cannot protect themselves from.

What is the status of a manatee?

Manatees are protected even though they shouldn't. Manatees are NOT native to Florida so they were just asking to die. Plus after they get hit by a boat they should learn not to ever go up to boats again. Also, it cost 18 million dollars to protect the manatee, that's 18 million we could use to make a new hospital or school. Lastly, Manatees are floating speedbumps who cause 500 dollar fines and 60 days in jail. That's why manatees stink and shouldn't be protected.
