What Do Manatee Eat?

Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    Manatees are herbivores (plant-eaters), feeding on a large variety of submerged, emergent, and floating plants. Sea grass beds and freshwater submerged aquatic vegetation are important feeding sites for manatees.A 453-kilogram (1,000-pound) manatee, for example, would probably eat between 45-68 kilograms (100 - 150 pounds) of food a day.
