In the Sea of Cortez at the southern Gulf of Mexico, there is a spectacular sight of … leaping Mobula rays! It looks like a futuristic space ship skimming over the ocean's surface. Or maybe a triangular shaped prototype aircraft launched from the depths.

Mobula Ray pictures reveal spectacular leaps They hurtle up from the depths and leap several feet into the air often turning somersaults in the process.
