What's happening here, Ron?
What's happening here?
This is probably a crystal river or one of those places that has a natural spring that provides warm water during the cold streaks.
When we have our cold fronts come through Florida, these manatees instinctively go to these springs.
They'll go to places like FPNL, some of the nuclear plants.
send out the warm water they all go to get the warm water because they're very susceptible to cold cold can can stun them can kill them in fact so during cold streaks you will see these manatees literally congregate sometimes in the hundreds i know at crystal river i was there once when there was over 400 manatees all congregated in this one river where all this warm water is coming out and that's what they're there for they're there to get the warm water that they need to survive
Ron, in hot days, are they looking for cold water?
And if so, there's been times where people that I've seen, not that I have done it myself, people that I've seen have given them water out of La Manguera on their face because they're in this hot canal in the Keys or whatever, and it's like, here's a little bit of fresh water for you.
They love the hoses.
They love the water from the hoses.
They love the hoses, but they're not loving the hoses to cool them off.
They're loving the hoses for the fresh water to drink.
Is this a romantic moment here between manatees?
What is happening here?
I am not sure what's happening there.
No, it's not necessarily a romantic moment.
It's certainly a meeting moment, kind of, you know, recognizing each other, trying to figure out who each other is.
But it's not a romantic moment.
Romantic gets a little bit more involved.
Let's play a sound here for Ron and have him guess the animal.
