Three reasons that Manatees are endangered is mainly because their habitat(Beds of sea grass, Wetlands, Mangroves) is being destroyed or drained for human population, but also because of water's becoming polluted which poisons them and the food they eat.

Why should you help protect manatees?
The manatee is an essential part of the ecosystem. This large aquatic creature, nicknamed the sea cow, eats huge amounts of aquatic plants every day. Not only does this help to keep the plants from taking over and choking the waterways, the manatees also produce a great deal of dung that helps to fertilize the bottom of rivers, lakes, and canals.
Why do people kill manta rays?
I have never heard of people poaching manatees; mainly the problem is motor boats accidentally cutting them with their motors or people harassing them. If anyone were to poach them, I'd say it would be because they are endangered, and their skin would be very rare and probably valuable in the black market.
