There are three different species on the US Fish and Wildlife Endangered Species List, plus one Dugong. But if you're referring to the Florida Manatee, it is listed as a State Endangered Species, but it is not list on the US Fish and Wildlife Endangered Species List.

Additional Information: The West Indian Manatee, was listed by the US Fish and Wildlife Service in March of 1967, while the Amazonian Manatee, was listed in June of 1970, both have a status of "endangered". The West African Manatee was listed in October of 1979, and has a status of "threatened". For more details, please see sites listed below.

The Humpback Whale was listed as an endangered species June 1970. Both by the state of Washington and Orgeon, and by Federal, so it was already listed when the US Endangered Species Act was passed in 1973. A ban had been enacted on "non-subsistence hunting" in 1955 by nations who were members of International Whaling Commission, or IWC, which was estabilished in 1946 to protect the North Atlantic Humpbacks. However in 1965 the protection given to the North Atlantic Humpbacks, was expanded to include the North Pacific and Southern Hemisphere populations.
