Founded in 1963, Hubbs-SeaWorld Research Institute was built on a bold idea: that science can protect and help us return to our oceans for generations to come. What began as a small team of researchers has grown into a leading non-profit marine conservation organization.

Today, on #ManateeAppreciationDay, take a moment to learn what a manatee chirp sounds like and think about how we can better protect these incredible animals from hazards in their habitat. From boats to pot lines and netting, everyday human activity can pose serious risks.
