500,000G? I just been there a few months ago and it was 200,000G
 
I would assume so. SW in Orlando is one of parks in a network for FL Manatee rehab down here. It's funny how a similar animal can face such different challenges.
FL manatees are coming in from boat strikes and cold stress (in the Winter).
Amazon manatees (like the ones at Dallas World Aquarium) are suffering from habitat loss and being hunted for food.
 
The below videos and pics were taken at one of the exhibits located at the newly open River Safari in Singapore. I brought my family there two weeks ago. They had this huge exhibit of manatees, arapaimas and pacus. So, if you ever visit Singapore, don't miss the River Safari. Its located next to the Singapore Zoo and the Night Safari. Apologies for the less than good videos and pics.
