[Extract] The dugong (Dugong dugon) is the only extant representative of the once-diverse family Dugongidae in the order Sirenia. The dugong's closest modern relative, Steller's sea cow (Hydrodamalis gigas), was hunted to extinction in the 18th century (Marsh et al., 2011).

Observation of yawn-like behavior in a dugong (Dugong dugon)
Journal of Ethology, 2021Yawning is an involuntary action that occurs in three phases: (1) slow mouth opening accompanied by inhalation, (2) maintaining the maximum mouth size, and (3) quick closure with exhalation. Yawning is a phylogenetically widespread behavior in vertebrates. Here, we report yawn-like behavior in a captive dugong.
