I have recently fallen victim to Loving-Cownose-Rays-Disease, and I fear it has no cure. The only way to treat it is by making dragons

we have the best aquarium by far (biased) (really biased) (i just like cownose rays)

They found something yummy on the rock. (gif from a video my partner took during our recent visit to the aquarium) Also, yes, the NE Aquarium is amazing. Worth the visit every time.

Cownose rays are so cool, like, you see them and you think "hey that's their mouth right?"

But no! It's actually a secret pair of fins to grab stuff with, making them (and their manta ray cousins) the only fish with three pairs of fins!

Bonus video of a baby one because it's melting my heart

You may have done this one already but would you be willing to do a cownose stingray or a beluga whale (i know whales are not fish so I completely understand if this is out of bounds)

Well, I do only make fish facts, but I can tell you off the top of my head that there are no beluga attacks on record at all! At least I recall it being that way. They’re friendly guys! :) Anyway, to that fish fact!

Daily fish fact #471

Cownose ray!

They get their name from the shape of their two-lobed head, which is the shape of a cow’s nose when viewed from above. They’re a social species, living in schools with up to 10 000 individuals!
