What's keeping these things from moving where the food or warmer temperatures are?

Seeing the manatees at Blue Spring state park was a highlight of our trip to Florida. The manatees seem so gentle and slow-moving and harmless. Hate to hear they are struggling.

Stupid manatees. Don’t you realize the earth is heating, not cooling? Quit drinking the Faux News Kool-Aid, manatees!

access routes to warm spring-fed rivers

Lost me right there. I've bathed in springs. I've never found a warm one. Sure, there may one in Arkansas, and a few in Greenland and the ones out in Kamchatka.... But most springs are **** shriveling, heart-attack inducing, painfully cold.

Try again, Mr. Government man.

There's not much that humans can do to keep manatees warm

I'll try to do my part by driving my SUV to the supermarket.

Here’s a solution. Put up a few nuclear power plants and dump the warm water from the cooling towers near manatee habitat.
