A Shark’s Bite May Not Be Enough to Stop a Giant Manta Ray 🦈 Great Blue Wild | Smithsonian Channel

To evade predators, manta rays rely on their speed and large flat wings. To kill a ray, a shark must bite through its main body where the vital organs are, not the wings.

Manta Rays are so Graceful gliding through the ocean ✨

Lol I don't see a single shark bite on any of the rays in this video
and Sharks don't attack Giant mantas often because they aren't worth it they would have to be very very desperate for food

These magnificent giants deserve our respect and admiration. Love to watch them fly!😍😍

Beautiful sea creatures 💖

Something that doesn't make any sense to me, is them stating that manta rays are fast at 20 mph to escape a predator, but sharks are much faster than that...
