中文注释:一头西印度海牛正在北弗罗里达州晶莹剔透的泉水里畅游。每年冬天,这种温文尔雅的大块头便成群结队的从它们的沿海栖息地迁徙到这些泉水中,享受这片保持在72华氏度(22摄氏度)的相对温暖的恒温水域。海牛(Manatee)是最古老, 恐龙时代遗留下来的,几乎要灭绝的哺乳动物。作者: Wes Skiles
海牛 西印度 图片故事:“海牛”也被叫做“美人鱼”----------不管你信不信。他们性情温顺、行动迟缓,以水中的水草为食。但是机动船只如剃刀般的螺旋桨却是他们的噩梦,因此目前数量极少。高清壁纸:英文注释:West Indian Manatee, Florida, 1998A West Indian manatee drifts through crystal-clear water in a North Florida spring. Hundreds of these gentle giants migrate from coastal habitats to the springs each winter to bask in their constant and comparatively balmy 72-degree Fahrenheit (22-degree Celsius) waters.
