A YouTube shorts about Dugong

The dugong is a marine mammal that feeds on seagrasses in warm coastal waters of the Indian and Pacific oceans. It is similar to the American manatee and has a dolphin fluke-like tail. Dugongs occur along the western coast of Madagascar, along the eastern coast of Africa, in the Red Sea and Persian Gulf, around the Indian subcontinent, and through the western Pacific from Okinawa to northern Australia. Australia has the largest populations of dugongs, but they also occur along the western coast of Madagascar, along the eastern coast of Africa, in the Red Sea and Persian Gulf, around the Indian subcontinent, and through the western Pacific from Okinawa to northern Australia. The dugong is one of four living species of the order Sirenia, which also includes three species of manatees. It is the only living representative of the once-diverse family Dugongidae, and its closest modern relative, Steller's sea cow, was hunted to extinction in the 18th century.
