Mermaids have attracted much attention across the centuries, from fantastical Greek mythology, powerful nautical superstitions, and even a beloved Disney princess. Easily recognizable as humans with a fishtail, they are closely associated with other marine animals, like turtles and dolphins, but especially manatees/dugongs. Some were even believed to have lured travel-weary sailors to shipwreck with beautiful songs.
