Someone Carved The Word 'Trump' On A Manatee's Back in Florida Federal authorities are investigating after a manatee in Florida was discovered with the word "TRUMP" scrawled onto its back. A spokesperson for the US Fish and Wildlife Service told that the mammal did not appear to be "seriously injured,"  saying that the word was evidently etched into the algae on top of its skin. Manatees, which are protected under the Endangered Species Act, are slow-moving herbivores with no natural predators.  According to the Center for Biological Diversity, humans regularly pose a danger to the mammals, particularly with boat collisions.
