Welcome to part 2 of the 13th episode of Freaky Fauna Files podcast! Today, we’re floating through the Florida Everglades to meet one of its most peaceful and beloved residents: the Florida manatee. These gentle giants have a fascinating story to tell, so settle in for a serene swim through their world.
We’ll explore their unique connection to elephants and their surprising role in the Everglades ecosystem. Did you know these herbivorous “sea cows” can eat up to 100 pounds of plants a day? But life isn’t all smooth sailing—manatees face many challenges, from habitat loss to boat collisions, and their survival depends on ongoing conservation efforts. Stick around for the Danger zone where the roles are switched!
A huge thank you to all our listeners, wherever you are. Next time, we are doing Audience Asks 3 so WE NEED THOSE QUESTIONS AND COOL STORIES. SEND THEM! SEND THEM! SEND THEM! And don’t forget to follow us on social media @freakyfaunafiles.Thanks for listening, and as always, Stay Freaky!
