Save the Manatee

When Cathy and were looking for a unique logo for our website we came across a marine mammal known as the Manatee. By mixing a manatee form with cow attributes we came up with the very cute Molliemoo logo.

The Manatee is a gently and slow moving mammal which is close to extinction. They are Florida's official state marine mammal but unfortunately their decline is largly down to human activity and the largest known cause of death for a manatee is due to watercraft collisions.

They are beautiful grey aquatic mammals with bodies that taper to a flat, paddle-shaped tail. They have two forelimbs, called flippers, with three to four nails on each flipper. Their head and face are wrinkled with whiskers on the snout.

By increasing awareness of these mammals and through education, regulations, and enforcement the manatee deaths caused by humans could be substantially reduced and this would lead to their eventual recovery and saved from extinction.

Please take a look at the following website which tells you all about their plight and how money is being raised to save them.

I think they are beautiful animals and hope that they will by around for many years to come.
