Saving Manatees with Jessica Mailliez
Crystal River has long been a safe haven for the Florida manatee, but when an invasive algae wiped out the eelgrass that manatees need for food, the community rallied to restore the river and save the animals that call it home. Sea and Shoreline’s Jessica Mailliez demonstrates the dirty work they do to remove invasive algae and restore native eelgrass and in doing so protect these gentle giants. This is part of our Wild Hope Series with HHMI Tangled Bank Studios.
