Orlando, Fla. — The cold weather we've felt over the past few days has manatees searching for warmer waters.
Hundreds of sea cows are floating around the constant 72 degree spring water at Blue Spring State Park.
Non-profit Save the Manatee operates two live cameras at the park, one above-water and one below-water.
Manatees are at risk of suffering from cold stress if the water they're in drops below 68 degrees.
Look at how they use their flippers to walk on the bottom! Coldest night in two years and Blue Spring State Park was full of manatees today! pic.twitter.com/x8wGMIuh73
