Batman rays are natural born with defect at front of disk, these are for sure
man-made. If not both those rays won the genetics lottery.





How are these cuts different than bat man? Looks like they messed up the cut, and then covered up, by chopping the whole ray up to me...

If you look closely batman rays have rounded "cuts" while these ones have straight cuts. And also batman rays sometimes have uneven cuts while these guys are pretty symetrical. Theres some messed up people out there to do that...
 
Batman rays originated as a genetic mutation..

it held a huge price tag..

So of course, Asian fish culture would consider mutilating a ray to imitate a batman ray, and create that price tag.. Turning a $100 Motoro into a $10,000 Motoro is good business, only if your psychotic.

Spizzy, check out this read... namely the one at the bottom

note: The opening statement could now be considered flawed.

Also.. if you look at the real batman rays, you will notice the way their snout is shaped and the way the discs are evenly undeveloped.. If you look at the pix of the mutilated, it looks as if the snout cuts attempt to heal up and grow back, but grow back unevenly.. However, I have seen Batman rays with unevenness in their development, such as Gr8s... so :confused:
