Manatee
Character
Manatees, also known as sea cows, are a species of marine mammal. They are the only one to be exclusively herbivore, feeding on over 60 different types of underwater plants.
SpongeBob SquarePants rarely features manatees, between their initial appearance in "Blackened Sponge" and "The Ghost of Plankton" it took about 12 years for the species to physically reappear in the series. One was briefly mentioned in "A Day Without Tears." They have since made infrequent appearances in The Patrick Star Show.
Characters
The characters who belong to this species are:
- Marcie the Manners Manatee
- Flying Dutchman (transformation)
Description
In SpongeBob SquarePants, manatees are non-anthropomorphic and appear to serve a similar role to cows on land.
