Chessie the manatee is seen again!

A Florida manatee named Chessie is perhaps the most famous and well traveled manatee along the US Atlantic coast. Radio tagged and tracked by the US Geological Survey's Sirenia Project, he gained media fame in the summer of 1995 by swimming past the mid-Atlantic states, through New York City, and all the way to Rhode Island, further than any manatee had been known to venture.
