Volunteers with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission on Monday relocated two manatees that had become stranded in Oldsmar.

Officials said the manatees — a female and her calf — removed from the southern pond at Bicentennial Park, next to the Mobbly Bayou Wilderness Preserve, after they likely entered the park’s retention pond during high tide.

Officials were not certain how long the manatees have been in the park.
