Manatees reach sexual maturity in 3-5 years (females) and 5-7 years (males) and may live over 65 years in captivity. Gestation is approximately 13 months and usually one calf is born. The calf may stay with its mother (cow) for up to 2 years. Male manatees (bulls) are not part of the family unit.
Butternut Squash can be easy to prepare in minutes. Cut the Butternut Squash lengthwise. Scoop the seeds out of the Butternut Squash. Place Butternut Squash in a microwave proof container, add 2 teaspoons of water to the squash where you had scooped out seeds. Cover and microwave 6 minutes on high. Scoop out squash and place in bowl. Serve hot with butter and/or brown sugar or maple syrup.
There is a method for cooking butternut squash that will retain the most vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and other nutrition when you eat them. This way of preparing butternut squash is also quicker and simpler than any other Iâve tried. Personally I think it tastes the best too.nce it is halved, pull out the seeds with your fingers and keep them if youâd like to lightly fry them up while the squash is cooking. While raw hulless pumpkin seeds are a lot easier to eat, you can lightly fry butternut squash seeds with their hulls in a little coconut oil and seasoning for a few minutes.
