Physical 

The bluntnose stingray is a stingray species that’s yellow to light brown on top and white to grey on the belly. It has a short snout, hence the name bluntnose. They grow up to 39.4 in (100 cm) in length, and can have a wingspan up to 36 in (91.4 cm). Like other stingrays, the bluntnose stingray has a venomous spine on its tail, which it uses to defend itself against predators.

Habitat

They range from New Jersey through the northern Gulf of Mexico and on to Argentina. Since New Jersey marks the northernmost edge of this range, most bluntnose stingrays found in the Barnegat Bay are stray individuals from further south. They live in shallow coastal environments, especially on sandy bottom and mud flats.

Feeding 

Bluntnose stingrays eat clams, worms, shrimps, crabs, small fishes. They search for prey by flapping their wings to disperse sand, uncovering buried invertebrates and fishes.
