A rescued manatee, suffering from exposure to Red Tide in Southwest Florida, comes up for air during treatment at Tampa’s Lowry Park Zoo, Florida, in this file photo taken March 13, 2013. Red Tide, a deadly algae bloom, has killed 241 manatees this year as of Wednesday, said Kevin Baxter, spokesman for the Florida Fish and Wildlife Research Institute in St. Petersburg, Florida. The figure already surpasses the highest number of Red Tide manatee deaths on record – 151 in 1996. REUTERS/Steve Nesius/Files (UNITED STATES – Tags: ANIMALS SOCIETY ENVIRONMENT)
