OCEANA ORG : LEATHERBACK TURTLES : MANATEES :
"First, Oceana and its allies won protections for endangerd Pacific leatherback sea turles with the establishment of the first permanent safe haven for leatherbacks in the continental U.S. The area, nearly 42,000 square miles off the U.S. West Coast, protects the places where leatherbacks feed on jellyfish after swimming 6,000 miles across the ocean from Indonesia in one of the world’s greatest migrations.
Second, the US District Court rules in favor of protections for endangered Steller sea lions. These majestic marine mammals compete with large-scale industrial fisheries for food and continue to struggle for survival in the western Aleutian Islands. "

GIVE A MANATEE AS A PRESENT? : MANATEE ADOPTION CLUB
"Blue Spring State Park: Twenty manatees who regularly winter at Blue Spring State park near Orange City, Florida, have been chosen as adoptees for one of Save the Manatee Club's five Adopt-A-Manatee programs. Blue Spring's natural spring maintains a year-round temperature of 72 degrees and is an attractive winter refuge for manatees who seek the spring waters when the surrounding river water temperatures become cold.
