BRADENTON, Fla. (WWSB) - The Bishop Museum of Science and Nature will soon upgrade its facility to give rehabilitated manatees a better chance at life than ever before.
The museum will be renovating the pool where the region’s mascot once lived to provide improved care to rehabilitating manatees. Remi Gonzalez , the communication director for the museum, said redoing this exhibit will give manatees a better chance at life when they are released back into the wild since it will mimic their natural habit more than before.
