Clearwater Marine Aquarium’s Buddy Powell addressed a room full of students curious about Florida’s manatees and threats to their habitat.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

A majestic sight in Florida\u2019s rivers and coastal waters, manatees are as beloved as they are emblematic of the Sunshine State. Yet the large aquatic mammals \u2013 who may have inspired the myth of mermaids \u2013 might be more threatened than ever in Florida and other places they dwell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s why, for its first Foreman Biodiversity Lecture of 2023, Stetson Law hosted Dr. James \u201cBuddy\u201d Powell<\/strong>, one of the world\u2019s leading experts on manatees, for a compelling talk about these lovable sea creatures and how to protect them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

President of Clearwater Marine Aquarium (CMA) and director of the facility\u2019s Research Institute, Powell has contributed to humanity\u2019s understanding of manatees, also known as sea cows, for decades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From Cousteau to Clearwater<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Powell\u2019s interest in manatees dates back to the 1960s. Growing up in Crystal River, Florida, a waterfront town about 100 miles north of Stetson Law\u2019s main campus in Gulfport, he spent extensive time navigating the pristine springs that feed the river, springs with 72-degree water year-round, which attracts manatees in search of warmth when Gulf and Atlantic temperatures plummet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 Jacques Cousteau himself hired Powell, then a high-school student, as a guide to find manatees in Crystal River.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He even has a near-photographic memory of manatees he has studied and can identify them by the unique scarring patterns on their thick skin, which are often caused by boat propellers.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"A
An iconic species in the Sunshine State, Florida manatees face unprecedented threats to their health and habitats.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

A truly fascinating species<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Powell spoke passionately about the Florida manatee and its counterparts around the globe, including the Amazonian manatee, the African manatee and the dugong \u2013 the manatee\u2019s fork-tailed relative in the Indo-West Pacific.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Though they dwell in waterways, he said, manatees are more closely related to elephants than whales or dolphins. In addition to elephants, they share a common ancestor with aardvarks and hyraxes. Like elephants, they have an exceptional memory \u2013 which helps them maintain consistent food sources and get to warm-water sanctuaries when temperatures drop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also, they may have inspired maritime lore for cultures the world over. \u201cNo matter where you go \u2013 Africa, South America, Central America \u2013 there is this reference and legacy to a water deity like a mermaid,\u201d Powell said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An inspiration for future environmental lawyers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As law students, those present at the lecture were curious about how they can use their skills to help manatees thrive despite numerous factors depleting their habitat and food supply. Powell, who has advocated for protections for manatees and their habitats in Florida, West Africa, Central America, and Cuba, had some insights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He recalled his early efforts to get protections in Citrus County, where Crystal River is located, in 1969. Time was of the essence, he said, given how development and other factors posed a threat to their habitat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe realized in time that it was a really special place,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Powell and other environmental advocates proposed that Crystal River become a manatee sanctuary. Officials initially denied the request, but ultimately came around \u2013 to everyone\u2019s benefit; manatee-spotting is now a major tourism draw during the winter months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI can say \u2018I told you so,\u2019\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A complicated threat<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service downlisted manatees from endangered to threatened in 2017. The designation comes as a mortality trend on the Atlantic Coast has led to record manatee deaths. Nutrient loading in the Indian River Lagoon \u2013 fertilizer, agricultural runoff, septic tank leakage \u2013 is feeding algae blooms that affect manatees\u2019 main food source.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhat\u2019s happening is, this algae has decreased the water clarity, which seagrass \u2013 being grass \u2013 needs clear water and light through to the bottom to grow,\u201d Powell said. \u201cNow, we\u2019ve seen a dramatic decrease in vegetation. So they\u2019re getting there and they\u2019re finding, well, \u2018where\u2019s the buffet?\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Environmental lawyers can help, he said, by using their legal expertise to push for science-backed clean water protections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s about environmental regulation and environmental laws \u2013 so that we can remove those threats to manatees,\u201d Powell said. \u201cWhat\u2019s good for manatees is good for everything else.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
