The Special Assistant to the Governor of Bayelsa State, Abel Ifiemi, has disclosed that this fish, identified to be a ‘Manta Ray’ was caught in Sangana, Brass local government area of Bayelsa state.
Manta rays are the fish with the largest brains, and at the same time, they are charismatic and gentle animals.
Mantas are found in warm temperate, subtropical and tropical waters and they are filter feeders that eat large quantities of zooplankton, which they swallow with their open mouths as they swim.
