Eagle Rays can be found in tropical, subtropical and worm-temperate waters around the World. They have wing like pectoral fins and long tails with venomous spine at the end. They usually swim near the surface of the water and sometimes jump out of the water in order to escape predators.
Spotted eagle rays are considered near threatened by the IUCN and in the State of Florida and on the Great Barrier Reef it is against law to catch a Spotted eagle ray.
