    Hi Ryno
    A fascinating animal, and a great post. Don’t forget to give your proper nouns captial letters, and to add punctuation to your writing. I look forward to reading your completed project.

    I love reading and watching videos about the dugong. Do you know the name of its cousin in the warm waters of the Americas?

    Wow! What a cool looking creature. I’ve never even heard of those or seen them before. Very cool.

    Did you know that sailers thought dugongs were mermaids? I read that from a book.
