Yellow Stingray
The yellow stingray (Urobatis jamaicensis), is also sometimes called the yellow spotted stingray. Their range stretches out from North Carolina, to Northern South America. They have an interesting feeding technique. They will lift their front half up so they resemble a cave, then their prey goes right to them thinking that the stingray is a cave.

Last weekend, I and eight other interns from the Mote went camping. We went on a dolphin boat and we got to help identify dolphins. We also went to Rookery Bay and to the Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary. We saw lots of animals, including a huge alligator and a friendly praying mantis.
