A beloved captive manatee has died after 'high intensity sex' with his
brother caused severe internal injuries, a necropsy has found.
Hugh, 38, died at the Mote Marine Laboratory and Aquarium in Saratsota on
April 29 after mating with his larger brother, Buffet, caused a 14.5cm rip
in his colon.
The aquariam said it observed the pair engaging in 'in natural, yet
increased, mating behavior' on the day, and then later found blood in
Hugh's colon, before he was found unresponsive at the bottom of the pool.
