More information
Save the Manatee Club is an award-winning national nonprofit and membership-based organization established in 1981 by renowned singer/songwriter, Jimmy Buffett, and former U.S. Senator, Bob Graham, when he was governor of Florida. Manatees are Florida’s official state marine mammal. With increased awareness, education, regulations, and enforcement, manatee deaths caused by humans could be substantially reduced, and the eventual recovery of the species could be realized. We protect ample healthy habitat to support a stable or growing manatee population while reducing manatee harassment, injuries and deaths from human activity. We ensure that sufficient regulations have been adopted to accomplish these goals.
