This ray hunts in the sand and moves by waving its wings.
It has a dart along its tail, which can be dangerous in case of bites on the man, but the blue spotted stingray don't attack, just be careful and don't hurt it.
This ray breathes through the top of the head and exhales from the bottom, allowing it to not suck sand.
The tiger shark has slender marks similars to the lines of tigers, hence its name.
When it is juvenile, these marks are round and not vertical. They change when it grows.
We can hear the bull shark is very dangerous because of attacks near La Réunion island.
However, tens of them are living at 600 feet from the famous beach of Playa Del Carmen in Mexico. And there are no attacks.
The kakihona sushi (sushi wrapped in persimmon leaves) are really the best!
To eat them, you have to go to Nara!
