I wanted to write something about my very
nosy neighbor, the Manatees, however it did not seem to be the right time to
complain about their abuse after what had just happened in a little close nit
school tucked away in my beautiful state of Connecticut.
Unfortunately this cannot be put off for
long.
In my other beautiful state of Florida we
have many part time visitors and full time retired people that we welcome each
winter.
Most of our visitors and retirees are just
like me, wanting or needing to get away from what winter brings in a northern
state, it is called OLD AGE.
A very small group of these people that we
must call human also come?
The only thing on their minds, they have
no heart, is come to have their fun at any cost!
They come to kill our animals, cut down
our endangered trees, fish only for sport, they throw the fish back to die a
slow death no longer being able to eat. However, we must draw the line with our
Endangered Gentle Giants!
As a Snow Bird I remember going to the
Blue Spring state park and getting into the water with the Manatees. Fear, then
interest crept in as one by one these nosy loving giants touched and caressed
every human in the water at no time were we in any danger.
I found out that we were not in danger, it
was determined that they were, so no more swimming at Blue Springs!
Over on this side of the country we have
people boating over our Manatees just because they are getting in the way of
their fun!
These intruders have hired an attorney
from California to help them remove the protection for our Gentle Giants!
One would rightly guess that they could
not find an attorney in any state that knows of these beautiful mammals!
My greatest fear is "What happens
when the thrill of the kill wears off with killing animals and fish, what or
who do they kill next"?
