To this date, we have successfully released 26 manatees, which is a remarkable achievement considering that each and every orphan baby manatee must be hand fed until they are 2 years old.  Each of the manatees we have release have been  equipped with a radio transmitter so that we can track their seasonal movements and make periodic checkups to monitor their health to see how they are adapting back in the wild. All of our rehabilitated manatees are only released in nature reserves, or protected areas, with the collaboration of the Peruvian government, private organizations and the participation of the local Amazonia children.
