You can help manatees by looking athttp:www.savethemanatee.org/whatyou.htm, which lists ways you could help. And tell other people about manatees, try not to ride boats with pointy motors, because they are becoming extinct!
The threat of manatees is really only damaging your "precious" motor boat... *shakes head in disgust* but the threats to manatees are motor boats, fishing nets, and careless polluting people.
they do nothing for us as far as people know
Manatees are consumers.
just don't pollute, and people in boats should watch out for them in the gulf. I don't know if anyone still hunts manatees, but they shouldn't.
