World first Manta Ray Birth
19-06-2007
The Churaumi aquarium on Okinawa is the first in the world to breed the giant manta ray. Worth mentioning is that the youngster was also conceived there, so no pregnant-female-importing crap (hate considering that world first captive birth).
suppose to be some footage on youtube somewhere... this is the news article anyways FOXNews.com - World's First Manta Ray Born in Captivity, Japanese Aquarium Claims - Science News | Current Articles |

What a Blow for the aquarium. At least they'll know what to do next time. They are also planning to breed whale sharks.

A second Manta Ray was born June 17. For safty reasons, it was immediatley transfered to a large sea pen 2 km outside of the Aquarium.

Great to hear that the aquarium did the right thing this time. How big are they when they're born?
