 TAMPA, Fla. – Zoo Tampa received a tiny patient this week, and she is the smallest rescued orphaned Manatee calf the zoo has treated!

The David A. Straz, Jr. Manatee Critical Care Center received the baby manatee. The center is one of only two places that takes orphan calves in, according to zoo officials.

The female manatee weighed in at 44 pounds and was found in the Gulf of Mexico near Venice.

She was rescued by Mote Marine Laboratory & Aquarium and the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission field staff.

Zoo Tampa officials said she is doing well under the car and watch of the zoo’s Animal Care team and Veterinary team.
