The fish is a large-scale fish in the middle and upper oceans. It has a mild temperament and is carnivorous, mainly feeding on zooplankton and small fish . Occasionally spring and autumn will jump out of the water surface, eggs will be born, and only one juvenile will be produced at a time.
Economic use [ edit ]
Ornamental fish species, because the meat is not delicious, has no food value. [1] However, because there are lawbreakers in the Guangzhou market in China who claim that the sputum of the manta ray has medical value and can treat cancer, infertility, etc., it has been massacred by humans, especially in Indonesia and other places, and then smuggled into China. However, there is absolutely no evidence that ghost bats have medicinal properties. [2] [3]
