Florida and the south turned the "endangered" classification around by awareness to the boaters. When I sailed and was at a southern marina, they would come up to the boat when washing off the decks. They love fresh water but we were told not to let them drink from the hose, it messed up their stomachs.

Sad to see they are now overpopulated as no habitat for them to feed.

:idea:

Maybe some of them need to become a single source surf & turf plate at seaside diners?

Manatee burgers.. that'd reduce their population w/o wasting their carcasses. 8)


It wasn't written in any sort of secret code. If there are too many, cull them like we do wolves and seals.
WTF are you implying?


Sorry but I still no clue why you think culling is the best option and why that is related to me? You may think it's not in code but for communication to work both parties have to understand. I'm positive you may understand but I'm thinking you are trying to insult me.


Wtf?

I replied to your post. You said they're overpopulated. One way to resolve that problem is to reduce the population. Totally wasteful just to kill them off and let them rot; better utilized as food than fertilizer. Hence my suggestion.

How is it a mystery why my reply was to your quoted post?

How is that an insult towards you? :?

Wtf? :?


They were a food source to the seminoles during hard times but are not today. Making them a food source would put them back on the endangered list. To me, your suggestion was moronic (kill something to save it instead of increasing it's habitat) and since it came out of left field, I assume it was an insult. My bad, thank you for the clarification.
