Major ray competition/sporting event or mass attempt at evolving into flying fish?

Belly flop every time. They need a new diving coach.

Have the conditions in the ocean gotten so bad that the rays are now trying to escape?!?

You think Steve Irwin is going, "Uhm. No."

They're the fish equivalent of penguins.

That is remarkable. Nature always has surprises to show us.

A couple of million more years of evolution and we might have rays flying about with the birds. Badass.
