Miocene dugongs resembled manatees, but their tails were V-shaped like a whale's, rather than the round paddle-style seen on the manatee. A species of dugong still exists in the shallow tropical waters off east Africa; west, south and southeast of Asia;
The dugong has a large range that spans at least 37 countries and territories and includes tropical and subtropical coastal and inland waters from east Africa to Vanuatu to Japan (Figure 1). The UNEP published the Dugong Status Report and Action Plans for Countries and Territories in 2002.
