Manatee is Rum Cay's newest resident

Read storyRUM CAY: A manatee was discovered in the Rum Cay Marina last week.

Concerned that the animal was not moving, Dan Vernon contacted the Bahamas Marine Mammal Research Organisation (BMMRO) in Nassau, who told him to make sure it got plenty of fresh water.

Residents are hoping the BMMRO will help rescue the animal, which they have named Crusoe after the fictional castaway.
