A young female named Woodstock.

Completed in 1999, Manatee Springs is an all indoor exhibit based on the*Everglades that houses many different species of wildlife from the swamps of Florida. The first exhibits are located in a greenhouse that simulates the sights and sounds of a freshwater swamp, tropical hammock and coastal wetland mangrove wetlands. Within the greenhouse are real plants that hang down from every corner, such as live oak, bald cypress, Spanish moss, and sabal palm trees. Also the Discovery Area is where visitors are encouraged to investigate the skeletal features of the Florida manatee and to see a sampling of species that contribute to Florida's diversity.
