Stingrays aren't very aggressive so when a predator comes they will usually try to hide or get away. If that is impossible then they will use their venomous barb and attack with it.

What is the stingray's protection?

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.
