The role of touch in captive and semi-captive Antillean manatees (Trichechus manatus manatus)

, 2021
Tactile signals have been neglected in aquatic animal studies despite being a major communication modality. We investigated Antillean manatees’ tactile behavioural repertoire and budget in captivity (7-females and 4-males) and semi-captivity (4-males ...

PRELIMINARY EVALUATION OF SYMMETRIC DIMETHYLARGININE AS A BIOMARKER OF RENAL INSUFFICIENCY IN WILD AND REHABILITATED FLORIDA MANATEES (TRICHECHUS MANATUS LATIROSTRIS)

Journal of zoo and wildlife medicine, 2023
: Currently, there are limited antemortem tests available to evaluate renal function in Florida manatees (Trichechus manatus latirostris). Although few reports of renal pathology in manatees exist in the veterinary literature, debilitated animals that ...

CLINICAL BIOCHEMISTRY IN HEALTHY MANATEES (TRICHECHUS MANATUS LATIROSTRIS)

Journal of Zoo and Wildlife Medicine, 2007
Florida manatees (Trichechus manatus latirostris) are endangered aquatic mammals living in coastal and riverine waterways of Florida and adjacent states. Serum or plasma biochemical analyses are important tools in evaluating the health of free-ranging and captive manatees.

Trichechus manatus latirostris (Manatee)

1977
Lymphocyte cultures were used for these karyotypes which were kindly donated by Dr. D.A. Duffield, Los Angeles, California. They come from Florida manatees and pairing is arbitrary, following that of White et al. (1976). Only one previous manatee, T. inunguis has been studied with 2n=56 (Loughman et al., 1970).

Hematology and clinical biochemistry profiles in Antillean manatee (Trichechus manatus manatus) from different types of captivities and free living in Northeast Brazil.

Journal of Aquatic Animal Health, 2020
The Antillean manatee (Trichechus manatus manatus) can be found along the Brazilian northern and northeastern coasts. Previous studies on the clinical biochemistry of these animals were conducted in North America and the Caribbean, whereas little is ...

Hematology of the West Indian Manatee (Trichechus manatus)

Veterinary Clinical Pathology, 1982
SummaryHemograms on blood obtained from 10 clinically normal West Indian Manatees (Trichechus manatus) were studied. The red cells were large and in lower number than in most terrestrial species. The manatee does not have a neutrophil as is present in most species, but it has a heterophil whose granules stain pink with the Wright‐Giemsa stain.The ...

Viral Papillomatosis in Florida Manatees (Trichechus manatus latirostris)

Experimental and Molecular Pathology, 2002
The Florida manatee (Trichechus manatus latirostris) is one of the most endangered marine mammals in American coastal waters. Naturally resistant to infectious disease, the manatee immune system appears highly developed to protect it against the harsh marine environment and the effects of human-related injury.

Classification of Florida manatee (Trichechus manatus latirostris) vocalizations

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2020
The vocal repertoire for the Florida manatee is quantitatively categorized from a sample of 1114 calls recorded from 3 different manatee habitats in Florida. First, manatee vocalizations were categorized into five call categories based on visual inspection of spectrograms and following descriptions provided in previous studies.
