Manatees glide beneath the water as a boat and personal watercraft pass above. A slow-speed, minimum-wake sign reminds boaters to watch for wildlife. Go Slow, Look Below is part of Connected by Water, a collection inspired by the places and wildlife of the Florida Reef Tract.
Watercraft collisions are one of the greatest human-related threats to Florida manatees. Many adults bear scars from past encounters, but propeller cuts are only part of the danger. A boat strike can break ribs, cause internal bleeding, and damage vital organs. Slow-speed and no-wake zones give boaters more time to see and avoid manatees, helping people share Florida’s waters more safely with these gentle animals.
This small original reminds us that slowing down can help protect the wildlife around us.
