Spotted Eagle Ray is Back!


Our wonderfully detailed spotted eagle ray is back in stock!

This spotted eagle ray is perfect for a school project or just fun to have as a toy or collectable!

This beautiful chocolate and gold plastic spotted eagle ray will make a fun addition to your collection of aquatic animals. You'll appreciate its realistic details. Our plastic (vinyl) ray measures 4 inches in each direction - from nose to tail and also across the wings. As you can see in our photos, the underside is detailed with a mouth and gills, and the words "SPOTTED EAGLE RAY" are moulded into the body. Each sturdy vinyl stingray comes with an informational tag in English, French, German, Italian, and Spanish. Come look through our entire collection of ray toys and gifts.

The spotted eagle ray can be found in coastal waters of most temperate and equatorial continents and around some island. I was fortunate enough to see one while snorkeling off the coast of Belize in February 2005. While sting rays tend to be shy of snorkelers and swimmers, people should be aware that their tail contains venom that is poisonous to humans. For more complete information and some interesting photos, see the Florida Museum of Natural History's web page on the spotted eagle ray. If you scroll down the page, you'll see one with ringed spots similar to the one in our gift shop.
