My special interest is whales but I love learning about other marine life. What's a cool stingray fact?

They use electroreception through the pores (called ampullae of lorenzini) on their “face”that detect faint electrical signals given off by other marine animals to help them find food

that's so cool! I think sharks might also have those, or something similar :D

they do! sharks and rays are pretty closely related honestly- they’re both elasmobranchs with cartilaginous skeletons!
