Gentle Manatee Smiles in the Sun

A round-bellied manatee floats front and center, its mouth curving into a cheerful grin. Two flippers rest softly at its sides, ready to paddle. Wrinkles along its belly show how squishy and huggable this gentle sea cow must feel. Bright, twinkly eyes peek out from its wide face, full of kindness and calm.

This manatee waits patiently, as if pausing for a snack or maybe a slow swim. Simple lines trace its soft features and roll along its plump body. The cozy, friendly scene welcomes bursts of color to bring this happy sea friend to life.

Fun Fact!

These manatee sounds are especially important for mothers and calves to stay in contact with each other.
