Timmy Turtle and the Laughing Manatee 

We share our planet with many kinds of life, among them are the great sea turtles. Sea turtles are magnificent animals. I once saw three of them ‘playing’ in the surf. It was an unforgettable memory. Their young face many dangers on their way to becoming adults. We need to do all that we can to protect and preserve these precious creatures.
