One is left wandering what a manatee in a bikini was doing in a public park...

[-] mech@feddit.org 198 points 2 days ago

I've never even seen a manatee in a bikini.

[-] ickplant@lemmy.world 52 points 2 days ago

Glad I’m not the only one with that thought.

Manatees can't wear bikinis, their nipples are in entirely the wrong place

[-] Lushed_Lungfish@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 day ago

Not with that attitude.

[-] PhoenixDog@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

You just cracked into an obviously under-represented market. You could make millions.

I can't, but I totally would date her just to wrestle with her. As a bonus, I am as fat as a manatee.

There is nothing to fix. But maybe she could fix me.

Listen, I get it, Manatees have no business wearing a bikini.

Why was the manatee in a park and why was it wearing a bikini. Lastly, was it a licensed wrestling match or unsanctioned?

[-] baguettefish@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 day ago

wrestling licenses are a scam perpetuated by Big Wrestling! go out and wrestle someone today! nobody can stop you!

Manatees are struggling with climate change along the florida coast line where waters in the summer have been measured to up to 100 degree F in the ocean. It has devastated manatee floral diet. And they are dying off from it.

Do not torment the gentle wildlife that you are killing off.

The other perpetrator:

[-] homes@piefed.world 41 points 2 days ago

In Florida, is an extremely serious crime to even touch a manatee.

[-] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 15 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

I once saw a park ranger just screaming at a group of guys and threatening them with $5000 fines just for getting near one.

I told a friend of mine who surfs, and he didn't realize they were so protected. He said there's an old girl who comes to visit them when they surf, and she rolls over on her back so they can scritch her belly. I told him it was a $5000 fine, and he was bummed. He liked scritching his manatee friend.

In the criminal justice system, harassment of marine mammals is considered a Florida-tier offense. In Miami-Dade, the detectives who investigate these bizarre aquatic crimes are members of an elite squad known as the Meth-Adjacent Intervention Unit. These are their stories.

You mean the Meth-Induced Abnormal Mannerism Investigators?

Oh no here comes the manatee from the top rope with a steel chair! Oof! As god as my witness she is broken in half!

[-] Otakulad@lemmy.world 21 points 2 days ago

She just wanted her bikini back after the manatee stole it.

[-] Bahnd@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago

Well... Who won?

[-] altphoto@lemmy.today 16 points 2 days ago

Her hips don't lie! That's shakira! You guys arrested shakira while she was doing her wrestling routine!

You might have noticed she's not blonde.

[-] altphoto@lemmy.today 16 points 2 days ago

Confirmed! You guys got shakira while she was having personal arguments with her favorite animal kingdom friend.

Just leave them alone. Its all about past manatee songs that never made it.
