Hi @gillianpearce! Yes they are different, they don´t have a poisened sting and they are one of the most friendly animals ever. They can´t do you anything, maybe only ramming you accidentally because their eyes are only on the side, but I never heard that this happened. :-)

Ah. Not so scary then. When I think of rays I always think of that Australian television guy who was killed by a sting ray during filming. ALlhough the chances of that happening are pretty small I think.
