Dugong

Dugong

Dugong or dugung is a marine animal that is one of four surviving Sirenia species besides the manatee. It is the only animal representing the Dugongidae family. It is also the only siren that can be found in the waters of at least 37 countries in the Indo-Pacific region, although most live in Australia's northern waters. Dugong is the only herbivorous marine mammal, as all manatee species use fresh water to a certain extent. Dugong relies heavily on seaweed as a source of food, so its distribution is limited to the coastal habitat where it is grown, with the main focus of dugong commonly in wide, shallow and protected areas such as the bay and mangroves. Its nozzle down the magi allows it to seize the seagrass. Dugong was hunted for thousands of years for its meat and oil. The distribution area during dugong is decreasing, and its population is increasingly approaching extinction. The IUCN lists dugongs as endangered species, while CITES restricts or prohibits the trade of populated-based products. Dugong atau dugung merupakan sejenis haiwan laut yang merupakan salah satu daripada empat spesis Sirenia yang masih hidup selain manatee. Ia merupakan satu-satunya haiwan yang mewakili keluarga Dugongidae. Ia juga merupakan satu-satunya sirenia yang boleh didapati di kawasan perairan sekurang-kurangnya 37 negara di rantau Indo-Pasifik, walaupun kebanyakannya tinggal di perairan utara Australia. Dugong adalah satu-satunya mamalia laut herbivor, memandangkan kesemua spesis manatee menggunakan air segar ke suatu tahap tertentu. Dugong sangat bergantung kepada rumpai laut sebagai sumber makanan, maka taburannya terhad kepada habitat pantai di mana ia dibesarkan, dengan tumpuan utama dugong lazimnya di kawasan yang luas, cetek serta terlindung seperti di kawasan teluk dan paya bakau. Muncungnya menghala ke bawah magi membolehkannya meragut rumpai laut. Dugong diburu selama beribu tahun kerana daging dan minyaknya. Kawasan taburan semasa dugong semakin berkurangan, dan populasinya semakin menghampiri kepupusan. IUCN menyenaraikan dugong sebagai spesis terancam, manakala CITES mengehadkan atau mengharamkan perdagangan barangan berasaskan populasi terlibat.
