"...it was determined that Hugh died from a 14.5 centimeter rip in his colon and other traumatic injuries caused by a sexual encounter with another, larger, male manatee at the facility, Buffett."

Damn. Big Brother Buffett asserted maximum dominance :(

Jesus christ, this is like a manatee dying of prison rape. Maybe introduce them to some ladies? And this might not happen?

You want the female manatees to get raped to death instead?

Maybe don't keep them locked up in tiny boxes?

Do manatees suffer depression from being in captivity?

If you gotta go out, go out in an incestravaganza*

Fuck aquariums and zoos, damn animal abuse.

And no they don't actually do a good job of conservation and what they do could easily be done in better ways.
