Cognition as a Conservation Tool: A Case Study of Florida Manatees and Boat Strikes
Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 2, April 2026.ABSTRACT Boat strikes injure and kill large numbers of Florida manatees (Trichechus manatus latirostris) each year. Management actions taken to mitigate this threat can be potentially enhanced by consideration of manatee cognitive processes. The role of cognition in marine mammal conservation has received little consideration in the literature.
