Records of vessel-Florida manatee collision outcomes and empirical boat speeds in Florida waters, 1978 - 2014
The dataset contains observational records detailing collisions between boats and Florida manatees (Trichechus manatus latirostris). Data include boat speeds, collision locations, and manatee injury outcomes, and are intended for ecological analysis and conservation purposes.
