Dugong - Fantasea Collection

Endangered Dugongs, or sea cows, were often perceived as mermaids by superstitious sailors because of their flattened fluke tails. Cutting swathes through the aquatic vegetation as they graze in herds, their distribution is closely related to their main source of food, seagrass. The ‘Fantasea Collection’ wildlife design portrays the beauty of the peaceful & shy Dugongs grazing the seagrasses, graceful swimmers with a chirpy call earning them the nick name of the ‘sea canary’. The Spotted Eagle Ray & Horned Sea Stars, the Hawksbill Turtle & Sea Horse with pigface flowers that grow along the sandy beaches. The design creates an awareness of our endangered sirenians.
