"Unraveling the Mystery: How a Stingray's Pregnancy Could Be Linked to a Shark"

A North Carolina aquarium is puzzled by a female stingray's pregnancy, suspecting a shark's involvement due to bite marks found on the ray. However, an expert from the Georgia Aquarium dismisses the possibility of a shark-stingray mix breed, citing anatomical and genetic differences. The pregnant stingray, named Charlotte, is expected to give birth to as many as four pups, with the unusual pregnancy being a rare phenomenon for her species. The aquarium's revelation has sparked discussions about the reproductive behaviors of stingrays and sharks in captivity.
