Stingrays tend to be bottom feeders, hence the downward facing mouths. Like their relatives the shark, they tend to use very sensitive electro-receptors along their body to sense possible prey. they tend to predate on small mollusk, clams and oysters, however they have been known to eat small bony fish. The sharp barb that is so infamous for have taken the life of activist Steve Irwin, is purely a defensive tool and never used to procure food.
