Hundreds of Florida manatees filmed basking alongside dolphins

Guardian News published this video item, entitled “Hundreds of Florida manatees filmed basking alongside dolphins” – below is their description.

Almost 200 threatened Florida manatees have been filmed together basking in shallow waters off the state’s west coast. The remarkable drone footage also showing a pod of playful dolphins swimming through the group. The video of the manatees and dolphins at play, taken by See Through Canoe, is unusual in that it captures the species together in such high numbers. The Florida fish and wildlife conservation commission estimates that only about 7,500 manatees exist in the wild in the south-eastern US.
