A parent and a baby manatee come up for air beneath the branches of a mangrove in a creek at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida.
The center shares a boundary with the Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge, which encompasses 140,000 acres that provide a habitat for more than 330 species of birds, 31 mammals, 117 fishes, and 65 amphibians and reptiles. Photo credit: NASA/Daniel Casper
