15. STELLER'S SEA COW

Scientific name: Hydrodamalis gigas
Steller's Sea Cow is an order of fully aquatic, herbivorous mammals
that inhabit rivers, estuaries, coastal marine waters, swamps, and
marine wetlands. The dugong is a marine mammal. It is one of four
living species of the order Sirenia. The dugong is the only sirenian in
its range, which spans the waters of some 40 countries and territories
throughout the Indo-West Pacific. They were largely dependent
on seagrass communities for subsistence and is thus restricted to the
coastal habitats which support seagrass meadows, with the largest
dugong concentrations typically occurring in wide, shallow, protected
areas such as bays, mangrove channels, the waters of
large inshore islands and inter-reefal waters.
