The unexpected heartwarming video instantly went viral all over the internet.
“I can’t take enough of manatees. They are the cutest in the whole Earth,” wrote one of the commentators next to the shared clip.
“Even in the animal world moms are still moms, so sweet,” another added.
“I want a manatee hug!” another said.
GUAGK guides love sharing these special moments with their guests, yet always follow protocol when observing animals in the wild, especially when babies are involved
I believe most people could watch manatees gracefully swimming around all day long, yet probably not everyone knows that these majestic mammals have no natural predators and humans are actually the biggest threat to their population.
Beautifully nicknamed sea cows due to their giant size and deep love for sea grass, manatees can range from 9 to 10 feet and can weigh 440 to 1,300 lbs, but some have been found at 13 feet long and over 3,500 lbs!
These astonishing creatures need to remain in waters warmer than 60 degrees Fahrenheit to survive and can’t move their head sideways.
Despite being sea creatures, manatees closely resemble elephants and have an exceptional sense of touch, which compensates their lack of full-colorvision.
People are used to seeing animals of all kinds interacting with each other in Florida’s state parks, but nothing like manatees giving one another hugs and kisses
Get Up And Go Kayaking, which started as a small idea in the summer of 2016, in a very short period of time became the first clear kayak tour company in the entire world to be a franchise and the fastest growing kayak tour company with 30+ different locations showcasing unique wildlife, marine life, and nature.
The company is always looking for exciting new places to offer guests premium experiences, but the interactions with gentle manatees are probably the most popular, since they always promiseextraordinarymoments and unforgettable memories for a lifetime.
