There ain't no party like a manatee party! When the manatees show up, you know that the party is going to rock all night.

And they showed up in numbers at the Three Sisters Springs north of Tampa, Florida on Monday. About 300 manatees swarmed a 1 acre area, forcing managers to shut down boating and swimming to make room for them. This is about double the largest number of manatees they've ever seen at the site at the same time.
