Amazing Photo!

This photo provided by Michael Sechler shows a stranded manatee in Manatee County, Fla., Sunday, Sept. 10, 2017. The mammal was stranded after waters receded from the Florida bay as Hurricane Irma approached. That the manatee couldn't outrun the retreating tide speaks to the side with which they rise and fall around hurricane winds. (Michael Sechler via AP)(Michael Sechler)

    This Hurricane has been sooooo awful for both animals and people involved-I really hope they can all survive and get thru this with the least pain and suffering. Its just not fair they have to experience that.
