美国佛罗里达州印第安河县消息：一头长约9英尺的海牛被国王潮（king tide）带入内陆水沟受困，经佛罗里达州鱼类与野生动物保护委员会（FWC）救援队救出，已于10月27日送往 Round Island Riverside Park 放归。
据印第安河县警长办公室发言人凯文·贾沃斯基中尉（Lt. Kevin Jaworski）介绍，10月26日晚7时22分，县警接到报告，称印第安河县南部、维罗海滩以南第5大道东南1900号段的一条水沟里有一头海牛。国王潮期间河水上涨漫入水沟，海牛随水进入，水位回落后受困其中。
FWC 救援队10月27日将海牛装上专用运输车，送到 Round Island Riverside Park 水域放归。海牛是佛罗里达州的标志性野生动物，也是受保护物种；每逢国王潮与风暴潮，海牛被困浅水与沟渠的事件时有发生，当局呼吁民众发现受困海牛时向 FWC 报告，不要自行搬动。

Florida: Nine-Foot Manatee Trapped in a Ditch by the King Tide Rescued and Released in Indian River County
INDIAN RIVER COUNTY, Florida — A roughly nine-foot manatee that became trapped in an inland ditch by the king tide was rescued by a Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) team and released on October 27 at Round Island Riverside Park.
According to Lt. Kevin Jaworski, a spokesman for the Indian River County Sheriff's Office, deputies received a report at 7:22 p.m. on October 26 of a manatee in a ditch in the 1900 block of 5th Avenue SE in the southern part of the county, south of Vero Beach. During the king tide, river water rose into the ditch and the manatee swam in with it, then was stranded as the water fell.
On October 27 the FWC team loaded the manatee onto a specialized transport vehicle and released it at Round Island Riverside Park. Manatees are an iconic and protected Florida species; strandings in shallow water and ditches occur around king tides and storm surges, and authorities ask the public to report trapped manatees to the FWC rather than trying to move them.
