Podcasts about manatees

Yesterday was an amazingly beautiful Florida Spring day!  Low humidity, low to mid 80's, very few clouds.  Took the family to Sebastian Park Inlet....a manmade connection between the Banana River and the ocean.  A small quite water cove.  Manatees were sighted while we were there.  Great nephew wanted waves, so a short walk over to the ocean side so he could body surf there.  Dinner at Captain Hiram's Sandbar with music entertainment while we ate.   Then we headed home for a much needed long night sleep as we all got too much sun.  So much sun that my already tanned arms and legs show signs of sunburn.  Today's adventure....looking for gators a the Lone Cabbage Airboat Rides...then back to Cocoa Village to finish the paintings that were started on Monday!  REMEMBER!  "The Best Of Hours Shows!" posted until my return to new shows on May 20th!  I always wish for you peace, love, understanding, and kindness.  May you have the week you deserve...

What I am saying is that we have been lifelong fans of all things Disney, and we spend a lot of time around our family's table discussing a lot of these topics.

Welcome back to the Rick's Rambles Podcast—your weekly dose of fun facts, positivity, and more! This week, we dive into one of my favorite animals—manatees—with a fun facts segment full of fascinating tidbits about these gentle sea creatures. Next, we highlight a heartwarming good news story about micro volunteering—simple ways to make a big difference in your community (or even the world) when you're short on time or resources. Then, it's time for the story behind the song, and we're taking a joyride through the history of the classic car-themed hit, "Hot Rod Lincoln." We wrap things up with a look at the fun, quirky holidays you can celebrate this week. Thanks for joining us—let's get rambling!

AJ and Mike are back with a lot to say about incompetence, the fires and Florida Manatees.

We discuss the possible impact on travel to the USA of the impending Donald Trump presidency while Simon reports from Florida on the often fraught interaction between humanity and manatees. With thanks to NOAA for the photo of a manatee and her calf.

Newsradio WFLA's Read Shepherd talks with Ragan Whitlock, an attorney with the Center for Biological Diversity.  He's reacting to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife's decision to deny "endangered" status for the Florida manatee, and keep the status as "threatened."

On tonight's program: Florida represent! A bunch of sunshine state folks are coming aboard the incoming Trump administration; But there are also those in Florida who fear the new administration's tough talk on immigration; Governor DeSantis would like state lawmakers to make a quick trip to Tallahassee before the regular 2025 session starts in March to tackle what he considers some critical issues; A possible – and risky – solution to Florida's property insurance crisis? Just don't have any insurance at all; A renowned Florida jurist retires and leaves a lasting legacy; Florida citrus production keeps falling; And We get up close to some wintering Manatees. We just won't get TOO close.

From boat strikes to seagrass loss, Florida manatees are facing existential threats this decade, however, conditions for the gentle sea cow are likely more favorable today than they've been in centuries, according to a report published in the journal Plos One. While manatees are long considered to be one the state's most adored inhabitants, research suggests they may have only arrived in great numbers starting in the late 1800s.

Florida is very proud of its manatees.  It has a county named after them and has pictures of them on license plates.  These gentle creatures are part of Florida culture.  But recent research indicates that manatees – also known as sea cows – might only be relatively recent residents of the Sunshine State. Manatees have […]

Cliff and Kendall are getting fungal this week and explaining everything you always wanted to know about mushrooms, but were afraid to ask! Then, it's the straight dope on manatees- you won't believe it! Also: segments like Bad Jokes (so bad!) and Hot Subjects (so hot!)! Don't miss this new episode that is like a balm from Gilead that heals the wounded soul. 

Welcome back for a Sunday episode of the pod! I have found, over the course of my awakening that church is not a building or certain religious tradition but an intellectual and spiritual space in which we acknowledge our own ignorance and actively search for wisdom. This space can be created anywhere, requiring only an authentic desire to learn in order to flourish. In this episode we do some intellectual and spiritual exploration. We talk in depth about the Dead Sea Scrolls, The Book of Enoch, Genesis Chapters 1 & 2 and the possibility that creation stories from around the world are not competitors but different traditions describing the same thing.  Lots of Love

Well that was exciting! With the 2024 presidential election results settled I am struck by a lingering feeling. The excitement of seeing populism flourish is overwhelming but there is another feeling hiding underneath the surface, a subtle heaviness that lingers after the celebration ceases. In this episode I attempt to analyse this feeling in myself and enunciate the reason it is there. Later in the show I break down the flaws inside the modern liberal political movement and attempt to speak directly to anyone who considers themselves liberal politically, pleading to rationality and the development of faith through loss. Lots of Love

In the Season 2 kickoff of Robin's Nest, Dr. Debi Luke discusses her impactful work at the Florida Aquarium, focusing on marine conservation. She highlights efforts to protect manatees, an iconic species at risk, and her advocacy for their well-being. Dr. Luke also talks about Florida's climate challenges, especially with coral conservation, aiming to restore reefs critical to marine biodiversity. Additionally, she covers the aquarium's role in rescuing and rehabilitating sea turtles, emphasizing the urgency of protecting these vulnerable marine creatures. Hope you enjoy!

Losing someone you love is one the great terrors of life. We often avoid thinking about the day when we will have to say goodbye. That is why it is important to let yourself feel when that day does come because through the grieving process a truth of the universe is revealed. The conservation of energy, the changing of one form to the next is expressed in subtle ways that go unnoticed when we numb ourselves. Don't numb yourself!  Switching gears rather abruptly I talk about the upcoming 2024 election and its ramifications. The choice has never been so stark, yet what that choice is, remains obscured for many. I attempt to annunciate it clearly for myself and anyone else who listens. God Bless America! Lots of Love

Hello again! It's good to be back in front of the mic! The last year has been chaotic to say the least. I have felt torn at times, as to how to cover all of the issues in a fair and honest way. This episode is an attempt to annunciate that feeling of frustration in all of us. That “what do i do to help”, feeling you have been sitting with. In times like these, we have to really tune in to what is true, through knowing and recognizing everything we feel and see in the moment. Keep your eyes wide open…then speak it. Lots of Love

If you've ever seen a manatee, chances are you were in Florida—but these aquatic relatives of the elephant also live across 21 African countries. In this episode, 2017 Pew marine fellow Lucy Keith-Diagne discusses the African manatees that live in remote, murky waters, and explains what makes this species different from other manatees and the challenges marine scientists experience in collecting data on them. Since this episode first aired in 2018, Keith-Diagne and her fellow researchers have collaborated at the first-ever African manatee conference and are initiating new work to help protect this species.

In this episode of our daily(ish) good news involves a Chick-FIl-A located in Pureto Rico that donates their leftover lettuce to the manatees.

Manatees are some of the most unusual looking wildlife creatures that you'll find in coastal units of the National Park System, places like Everglades National Park, Biscayne National Park and Cumberland Island National Seashore.    They are huge – the largest on record reportedly tipped the scales at 3500 pounds and was 13 feet long – and rather bulbous looking.    But manatees are also an endangered species under the Endangered Species Act. There are many threats to manatees along the Southeastern coastline of the United States, from power boaters to shrinking shorelines, and even climate change impacts.   To learn more about these interesting mammals and the struggles they face to build their populations, we're joined today by Tiare Fridlich, a manatee biologist with the Save the Manatee Club.
