In this video, students will watch as after an exhaustive search, an explorer finds one of the elusive rays—perhaps the largest freshwater fish—near Bangkok. They make several captures before they find the big one. The captured stingray has a baby wh...ile in net. The ray is more than six feet long. This is a great teaching resource for elementary/middle school students. It would work well in conjunction with a science lesson on fish, preservation, and/or waterways. This video also helps to build background knowledge (3:11).
