Manatees

Name:   Manatee

Scientific name:  Trichechus

Native country: Africa / Florida

More information: 

Manatees! They're so cute. I recently went to the Singapore River Safari where the manatees are in the world's largest freshwater aquarium.

Manatees are mammals and are also known as "sea cows". They live for about 60 plus years .Although there are 3 different types of manatees, they all behave and look alike.

Manatees are, sadly, endangered creatures. They are gentle creatures too!

We should start to care about the world and all the endangered creatures before its too late !

2.Plantain Squirrel 
These squirrels are very cute and they seem to be so happy and free when I see them:)

3.Lesser Mouse Deer 
I have seen 2 of these creatures before but they were so speedy I didn't have time to take a picture.

4. Wild boars
They live in forests and dig the ground for food. Their pretty common to me.Some people are culling them but actually, I've seen them many times and they don't really affect me.

5. Fruit bats
There are many types of bats in Singapore.Sometimes, they fly into my house and my sister and mother would scream .I think i like them even though they poop on my floor, because I read that without bats, there would be no durians. Plus they can eat lots of insects and creepy crawlies.

Uncommon

1. Pangolins
I've never seen one before. They are endangered already. My mother once saw a dead pangolin on the pavement near the forest. So sad.

2.Samba deer
I guess this should be uncommon. My father once saw a real wild one in the forest. He said it was big and tall. I would love to see it! 

3. Colugo
This is a nocturnal creature that is rarely seen. They can glide in the air .When I saw pictures of them, I found them very pretty.My friend says she saw it once . cool.

4.Salt water crocodile
(Okay... this isn't a mammal I know). This crocodile is critically endangered in Singapore. I think they sometimes swim from Malaysia to Singapore. Sights of these crocodile has been seen in Sungei Buloh . Pretty scary and cool at the same time.
