| 1984 | Horizontal tooth replacement in the Amazonian manatee (Trichechus inunguis). Mammalia (Paris) 48(1): 105-127. 7 tabs. 7 figs. https://doi.org/10.1515/mamm.1984.48.1.105 Mar. 5, 1984. –French summ. Analysis of tooth-loss data from captive manatees indicates rates of tooth movement on the order of 1 mm/month. The rates vary directly with food (especially grass) consumption, and are probably controlled by the mechanical stress of chewing. The replacement process seems adapted to a diet that is both tough and abrasive, and does not work as well when (as in Florida manatees) these two factors are decoupled. | ||
