How does the dugong protect its self?

Answer 1

• Be on the look out for dugong when you're in areas that they are known to inhabit or feed (for example, Dugong Protection Areas and shallow seagrass beds).
• Slow down your vessel to a no-wake speed (less than 10 knots) in these areas.
• Anchor away from seagrass beds where possible.
• Communicate with any other vessels in the vicinity of a dugong to avoid unduly disturbing it.
• Do not approach in a vessel closer than 50 metres of a dugong- if a dugong appears closer than 50 metres, move away from it very slowly.
• Do not approach in an aircraft within 300 metres altitude or within 300 metres horizontal radius of a dugong.
• Do not swim, dive or get in the water with a dugong.
• Do not feed, touch, grab, chase or harass a dugong.
• Avoid making loud noises and sudden movements when around dugong.
• Never separate a female dugong from her calf.
• Brief your passengers on the appropriate behaviour and legal requirements for the protection of dugong. Ensure you have appropriately trained or experienced staff to conduct the briefings.
• Ensure a staff member is monitoring the dugong's behaviour.
• Provide information about dugong in your onboard interpretation.
