Sea cows, which live in the ocean, are also known as manatees and dugongs. The large, grey-colored manatee and dugong is a herbivorous aquatic mammal that eats kelp and sea grasses. The manatee and the dugong both have a horizontal tail shaped like a paddle at their hind end and two flippers on their sides. In the past, sailors mistook manatees for mythical mermaids. The sea cow population is decreasing mostly because of habitat loss, but fishing structures can also cause stress for sea cows.
