And when we say the biggest, we mean that literally: Manatees are the largest herbivores in the entire ocean. National Geographic says they're about 1,300 pounds and 14 feet long, though Defenders.org says they can grow to a whopping 1,800 pounds.

The first mermaids were actually manatees. Yes, you read that right. The myth of the mermaid likely originated with manatees. Mermaids have been characters in myths and stories at least as far back as Homer's Odyssey, which was written in the 8th century BC, and many explorers thought that these unusual sea creatures (which they only got a glimpse of) were actually mermaids.

Manatees live in shallow, slow-moving waters, including oceans, rivers, estuaries, and even canals. Unlike most other sea mammals, such as dolphins and whales, manatees don't have any blubber. Without any blubber, manatees have no protection from the cold. They don't like it when their watery environment dips below 68 degrees, and, in fact, they can experience stress and hypothermia at these temperatures.
