Who could possibly disagree with this? Everybody loves manatees.
Get ready for a Snooty statue. Say goodbye to a Confederate monument.
A petition in Bradenton, Fla., is calling for a memorial to Confederate veterans to be replaced with a statue of beloved Snooty the manatee, who died in a tragic tank accident at the weekend only days after celebrating his 69th birthday.
Local media reports that thousands have signed the petition, which is the brainchild of local a resident.
