About this ray

This ray was caught in Andros, Bahamas, and is the beautiful animal in the imagery featured.

About this Adoption

This ray is female, measures a total disc width of ~90 cm, and was fitted with a PIT tag; this type of tag does not transmit signals, but is scanned by researchers during a recapture, just like the tags used in pets. We’ll only get further information on this ray if we or other scientists catch it again. In exchange for this adoption donation, you will have the privilege of naming her, you will receive an adoption certificate, and if we or others recapture your ray, we will excitedly be in touch with an update!
