MANTA RAYS
Manta ray, also called devil ray, any of several genera of marine rays comprising the family Mobulidae.
Manta Rays are not dangerous. They are even harmless and can't hurt any diver or swimmer. They are usually very curious and swim around the divers. They can sometimes even jump out of the water to get rid off their parasit.
All rays have flattened and often kite-shaped bodies. These animals also possess venomous spines that can inflict wounds, thus, making them dangerous. However, Manta Rays do not have spine on its tail bases.
Manta rays, related to sharks and skates, are found in warm waters along continents and islands. They swim at or near the surface, propelling themselves by flapping their pectoral fins and, at times, leaping or somersaulting out of the water. They feed on plankton and small fishes that they sweep into their mouths with their cephalic fins.
