Clinical observations on captive and free-ranging West Indian manatees, Trichechus manatus, in Florida.
Aquatic Mamms. 8(1): 2-10. 3 tabs. 2 figs. June 1980.
–Reports blood and urine values, skin lesions and bacterial infections, body lengths, weights, and weight changes in relation to temperature. Urine osmolarity varied with salinity; concludes that manatees may be able to drink salt water and concentrate urine.
