An underwater camera system that uses bait to lure in ocean creatures has captured more stunning video of marine life off the coast of New England - this time an enormous stingray.
The Atlantic Shark Institute's Baited Remote Underwater Video system recently spotted a huge roughtail stingray off Rhode Island. These stingrays can be found in New England waters during the summer before heading south as the water turns cold.
"It was a really cool thing to see," Jon Dodd, the executive director of the institute, told WBZ-TV. "This was a little bit of a surprise based on its size and location."
Dodd said the stingray's span can measure 8 feet wide and they can weigh up to 800 pounds.
