Rays - CO-Exist Projects

Because rays are at the top of ocean food webs they have few predators. Compared to most bony fish, rays are long-lived, slow-growing, and are late to mature. Unfortunately, this means rays are highly vulnerable to human pressures such as fishing, habitat degradation and pollution. #saveourrays
