Stingrays. Stingrays are a family of cartilaginous fish containing nine genera and about 70 species. They can be found in all tropical and sub-tropical seas, and there is also a freshwater-only sub-family-the river rays. A flattened body shape and disc-shaped pectoral fins help stingrays live and hide in sand and mud underwater. The famous barbed stinger on the tail is only used in self-defence, often when they are stepped on in shallow waters.
  Rays spend much of their time lying motionless on the seafloor or riverbed. Their tails are in many instances vestigial and â¦ in certain species non-existent. Although stingray and skate pectoral fins are attached along their entire basal length, their outer margins are highly flexible. stingray is a type of fish, so it can swim, eat other sealife (from plankton to fish to other rays, depending on its size), raise offspring, and sting a person if stepped on â¦ .
