Manatees! He was given a stuffed manatee as a baby. He became very attached to “baby Manny” and wanted to learn about real manatees. Once he discovered their gentle nature, and how at risk they are, he was smitten. No other animal could compare, not even a dinosaur! He watches manatee cams on line, has read every book we can find, watched every documentary, and we plan to take him swimming with them when he learns how to swim unassisted. His dream job is being a manatee veterinarian.
Anything active. Lately he loves nature walks to bird watch and to look for fox’s, snakes, and prairie dogs with his binoculars.
