Giant oceanic manta ray
Did You Know?
Manta rays are giant, gentle filter-feeders with unique belly spots like fingerprints, the largest brain-to-body ratio of any fish, and the ability to "fly" out of the water, performing incredible acrobatics despite their massive size (wingspans up to 29 feet!). They constantly swim to breathe and feed on plankton, visiting "cleaning stations" for hygiene and displaying high intelligence, including recognizing themselves in mirrors.
