  1. order sirenia

    Order Sirenia, also known as sea cows, is a group of fully aquatic, herbivorous mammals that comprise four living species: the dugong and three species of manatees. They are characterized by their large bodies, paddle-like forelimbs, absence of hind limbs, and a flattened tail used for propulsion. Sirenians inhabit warm coastal waters, rivers, and lagoons and feed primarily on seagrasses and other aquatic plants. This order includes extinct species as well, like the Steller's sea cow. The name Sirenia is derived from the mermaids or sirens of Greek mythology.
