I am Soo glad to hear this❤
Blue Springs was our swimming hole when I was a teen. No boardwalk. We parked in a field and took a short walk through the trees. It had a great rope swing. Early seventies.
Go Manatees!
Someone needs to drop a GoPro
Great.
Wow! was there last saturday and there was just over 200. What an amazing place and experience
The cold weather being introduced into fl might be the reason. Hopefully they starting breeding like crazy
😅❤❤❤❤ my favorite animal ever!!! They are amazing creatures. Not sure if you can swim around them right now but to just veiw them is beautiful
Christopher Columbus really liked them .. dude said they were mermaids 🧜♀️... So he engaged with them.. 😂🤮
Cool 😎
Yay!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉
Does this mean that Arby's is gonna have a new menu option?
What a mean spirited and unnecessary comment. not funny😮
@@sharonammirati2042 Calm down Karen ... I mean Sharon.
@@321gates????? I like Manatees, no need to be snarky
@@sharonammirati2042 I do too, but I recognize a joke.
Save the manatees group counted hundreds less than that. I think the park bumped up the numbers because it was going to be one of the last cold weekends. The wait to enter was an hour. They made a lot of money by declaring it a record. It wasn't the most that I ever saw there. I believe the number was closer to 650 like the other group counted.
I doubt very seriously that FL wildlife management would do that for a few extra entree fee bucks. It's a state park, not a privately owned theme park.
@@321gates I didn't see 900. The other group didn't see 900. They got a few bucks and a lot of media attention...
@@larrydownard5634 If true, then I doubt it escapes media attention. I'll wait to hear something. Also, these people do not work off of commission, so I still do not see the motivation to lie.
Manatee,s are like Ground Hogs. They pop up and surprise you and they look alike!
They just wanted to get back to Nature.
Time to sell hunting tags
They are still endangered, why would you even make such a comment. I don't get it? not funny at all.
@@sharonammirati2042 There you go again Sharon.
@@321gates YEP!!
Yay! ლ(╹◡╹ლ)
Thank you global warming
Huh? Sarcasm I hope, because this is a natural occurence that takes place every winter. The water in our springs stays around 72 degrees year round making it much warmer than the Gulf or Atlantic this time of year. Glad I could help.
