FILE - In this Jan. 7, 2014 file photo, divers swim with dozens of West Indian Manatees as the animals congregate around a freshwater spring at the Three Sisters Springs on the Crystal River north of Tampa, Fla. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service says the West Indian manatee is now considered “threatened,” not “endangered,” but it also says the gentle giant could be in danger of extinction in the future without continued protections. The agency said in a news release Thursday, March 30, 2017, that challenges remain to ensuring the species’ long-term future, even though the manatee population has increased over the years.
