Conservationalists Plant Sea Grasses To Help Save Manatees
In honor of Earth Day 2022, this week Getty Images has been highlighting some of our recent environmental features.
Conservationists, including those from the Homosassa River Restoration Project, plant seagrass in the area to help restore the natural habitat for manatees and provide a feeding ground for the mammals, following a record year in manatee deaths in Florida. The deaths were primarily from starvation due to the loss of seagrass beds.
