It is hard for some people to believe that manatees
and elephants have so much in common. After all,
manatees live underwater and have flipper-like feet.
However, manatees, like elephants, are pretty big-
an adult weighs about two tons! The biggest similarity
is the manatee's large, flexible, upper lip, which acts
like a shortened trunk. Manatees use their lips-or
"trunks"-to gather food, eat, and interact with other
manatees.

Which of these best describes the author’s attitude toward manatees?

Humorous

Critical

Impressed

Saddened
