I read this earlier this week, and actually, this is worse for the manatee than you'd imagine - removing them from the endangered list removes a LOT of the protections on their habitats that they need to thrive, and will most likely land them back on the endangered list sooner rather than later.
Unfortunately, another major issue is the closing of power plants up and down the southeast coast which created artificial warm springs for them to reproduce in.
This whole issue had me pretty irritated this week. :( |

| Blake, I don't understand your dislike for PETA. Do you hate People who advocate the Ethical Treatment of Animals? |
|

PETA is a misnomer, there's nothing ethical about those folks :)
A better name would be "People who deny 200,000 years of human biology and use skewed facts in a vain attempt to get the world to treat animals better than they do other humans."
Though, I'll concede it doesn't roll of the tonge nearly as well... :( |
