# isn't a dugong a pokemon?

# terrible!
oh no, i've got that wrong, haven't i?

it's a serious question - but i dopn't think there IS a difference. like between moose and elk.

# oh.
well, I've never heard of a dugong, and I've only encountered a manatee in Monkey Island 4. So I'm afraid I can't be much help. Sorry :)

# aparently
(according to google) the difference between a dugong and a manatee is that a dugong is a mammal which live around the north coast of Australia and Manatee is a county in Florida

The main difference between them is that the manatee’s tail is rounded like a spoon,
that of the dugong is fluked like a whale’s.

# the main difference
is that dugongs form a symbiotic relationship with yorkshire terriers, whilst manatees tend to go for dachshunds.
