self defence
The stingray barb punctured his Aorta and he bled to death
a stingray looks like a flat gray white body with a stinger and an mouth under the flat body while the eyes are on top! :)
No mantas aren't dangerous, they are completely harmless, as they do not contain a stinger such as the stingray.
Yes, stingrays can lose their stingers, which are actually modified barbs made of cartilage. If a stingray gets injured or if the stinger is damaged, it can detach. However, stingrays can regenerate their stingers over time, similar to how some other animals can regrow lost body parts.
A stingray is a cartilaginous fish related to sharks. The stinger is covered with a thin layer of skin. Its body covering blends in with its habitat and is a thick, rough, rubbery skin.
The barb around its tail is its protection. If a predator tries to prey on the stingray, the stingray will whip its tail and the barb injects a venom into the predator. Contact with the stinger causes local trauma (from the cut itself), pain, swelling, muscle cramps from the venom, and later possibly even infection from bacteria.
Yes, you will have to re-cock the spring every shot.
Simple, it can hide under sand in the sea, or it can use its stinger on its tail to shock an enemy. I think stingrays are very cool because of that.

The entire surface of the body, also the inner surface of the coelenteron can sting; however, stinging cells are located mostly on tentacles and on oral arms.
