Become a Sea Guardian today by adopting a stingray
Stingrays are related to sharks, and just like their shark cousins, they do not have any bones. Instead, their bodies are supported by cartilage – the same stuff your nose and ears are made of. They have broad fins, or ‘wings’, that run the full length of their bodies, giving them a flattened, rounded appearance.
To navigate through the water, stingrays move their whole bodies in a wavy motion that propels them through the water. Some stingrays like the eagle ray can flap their ‘wings’ so hard they can launch themselves out of the water and into the air!
Adopt Ray a stingray with a monthly gift of $35 or more and you will receive:
- 12 inch 100% recycled eco-friendly species plushie
- Adoption kit with information card about the species
- Adoption certificate.
Our oceans and marine wildlife need your help.
