How You Can Help the Manatee

How can you help?

You can help by

  • obeying all boating signs
  • always keeping alert for marine life while on the water
  • not feeding, touching or harassing the manatees
  • not discarding monofilament line, hooks, or any other litter into the water
  • making a donation to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission to help protect the manatee when you register your boat or
  • buying a Save the Manatee license plate for your car at your Florida local tag office.
