Manta Ray 🧥 Asia (2024) "Beneath the Waves"
Large, flat and oddly shaped, these fish are named for their unique appearance, 'Manta' meaning blanket or cloak in Spanish. Feeding on krill and zooplankton, they are often seen forming long chains and swimming in circles to create a spiral effect, catching food in their wake. Along with dolphins, primates, and elephants, Manta Rays have demonstrated high levels of intelligence and long term memory, able to map their environment using sight and smell.
