JACKSONVILLE (CBSMiami) – Gov. Ron DeSantis made a serious announcement Monday to assist manatees.
He pledged greater than $30 million to help the light sea cows.
“It will enhance and expand the network of acute care facilities, like the one right here at Jacksonville Zoo, to treat injured and distressed manatees,” he mentioned.
The governor went on to say that funding may also help restoration efforts, so manatees can entry Florida’s spring waters.
