Catching a pregnant ray...

[Superlaz]

According to the description, the ray was caught and then had the pups on the boat - 20 pups born and were saved. Mom did not make it, hook was too deep

IF 20 was true, largest batch I 've ever heard of.

Interesting video!

Largest batch of a ray in the wild, I heard of.

In asia, there shall have been a batch of as far as I can remember 23 or 24 pups. The mother was a so called SP Motoro Hybrid ray....I've seen pictures, but cannot remebember where I've seen it. For sure someone other can.

The largst batch I definitly know has been of a friend of mine and were 16 pure blooded Motoros. My biggest batches have been 10 P14 and 10 Henlei x Leopoldi hybrids all far away from 20......
