'She was weighing the boat down,' said April Jones of the spotted eagle ray that made a sudden appearance near Dauphin Island, Alabama. FOX13
She said, "We were trying to get a fish for me to catch. So I told them I was ready to leave and head to a different spot. We packed everything up — and as we were pulling away, there was a hard hit and a water splash."
"We made some calls" for help, she said, to try getting it out — "but she was so heavy that she was also weighing the boat down, and we were getting water in the back of the boat.""I ran into the lab to see if anyone could help get her out. In the meantime, some people had come to the boat and helped her get out."
"We don’t know how far along these babies were. We were told she jumped because a remora, or suckerfish, was likely stuck to her. And by flying out of the water — if it had landed in the water — the sucker fish would’ve fallen off." Jones said the people who helped her husband "guessed the ray's weight to be 400 pounds. We think she was about 7 feet wide, spread out. The tail was very long, and it looks like the barbs were at the end of her body, not her tail.
"It's difficult to tell from their appearance," he said, "if the young spotted eagle rays from this encounter were stillborn or not. I'm fairly confident the family would have noticed them on the deck of their boat if the pups were alive and well."from shark predators
