FEATURES This stingray figure is highly detailed and scientifically accurate, from the pitcher on its tail to the spirals behind her eyes. The fins of its flattened disc-shaped body are wavy to simulate the movement of the skate as it swims through the water. SIZE AND COLOR - This figure measures 7 inches at the end of its tail and measures 4 inches wide. It is slightly smaller than a standard pair of scissors. Its coloration is brown above with speckled markings to help it blend with the sandy seabed, and white on its underside. Scientific Name: Genus Dasyatis. The Common Skate likes to bury themselves on the ocean floor and uses the pitcher on its tail to protect themselves if someone closes. Sting's Ray is part of the Incredible Creatures collection.
