Manta Rays Are Smart Enough to Give These Fish Instructions 🐠 Great Blue Wild | Smithsonian Channel

Manta rays have the largest brains of any fish in ocean. Underwater footage has even shown these rays indicating to cleaner fish, such as the sergeant major damselfish, which body parts need attention!

Unless you have dived with mantas, specifically at 'cleaning stations' such as this, you won't understand the true majesty of these animals. If you follow the rules ( you had better.!)... You never get up in their faces. But they are free to get in your face! If you are so lucky. The eyes of a manta ray are like nothing you would ever expect, if you are in the right spot and a curious manta decides to come check you out. Eyes bigger than ours , and sentient. A calm knowingness in there eyes. These benevolent giants should have our protection, support and respect.

The Manta ray is among my spirit animal totem and have followed me since i was around the age of 8. Thank you for commenting this as my search for their behavior intrigues me.

10 hours at the fish nibble spa? That's a self care day.
