The first 48 hours of a baby manatee’s life are pretty incredible. 🥹🩵 Within minutes of birth, mama helps her calf reach the surface for its first breath. From there, it’s all about learning to coordinate swimming, surfacing for air, and nursing- all while staying close to mama for food and protection. Little ones have a lot to figure out in their first couple of days! #manatee #underwater #wildlife #animals #riverlife
