The World of Deep Sea Rays and Skates 

Sharks: Yeah you can copy my homework Rays: Don't worry I'll change it a little

The Orca suddenly stunning the Ray was a shock.

I'm seriously excited for the day where this channel has a massive library of nature facts that can be used as a legit study material for schools. Extremely informational, easy to understand and doesn't treat the viewer like an idiot. I love every video

That opening shot is other worldly.

Another banger incoming, they are always so peaceful.

I’ve witnessed a mantra ray swim above me as I was scuba diving. I could only see the silhouette of it, and it was the most incredible thing I’ve ever seen in my entire life.

Seeing the rays breaching the waves and jumping out was the first I've saw. Absolutely mesmerizing- I've got another level of respect of Skates and Rays now :0

5:40 "Rays are also an important source of prey for larger fish" Ray: *gets yeeted by orca*

I like to think the creator of these videos found out about chimaeras, became obsessed and went on a deep dive (pun intended) into learning about it, and that’s the entire reason they decided to make videos about the deep sea and all it’s creatures Amazing work as always Leo!

That devil ray swarm is just magnificent

I didn't know that they hunted in large packs, very interesting

Thank you for making so much on the ocean. We need more people to teach about what's in the ocean since we barely explore it anymore.

Yes! rays and skates getting their well deserved spotlight! Batoidea are such unique and wonderful animals, amazing video as always!

There's something so calming about your videos, I feel like I'm getting professional content for free. =)

8:18 That fish just bumped into the rock lol.

I'm in love with this channel and the way you cover the ocean.

rays are beautiful but sometimes i cant help but giggle when i see them. they’re so silly looking, i adore them. i love that depending on the angle you either see a majestic being or a funny lookin guy. i love them, truly, i love them

I went diving with manta rays in Hawaii. They're even more amazing and mesmerizing in person than in the video!

ocean animals are my favourite thing and bring me genuine joy, this is amazing, thank you so much

Batoids have some of the coolest dentition I've ever seen. Specialized durophagous conveyor belts of doom that crush any and all.

Leo! Oh my goodness I was so excited to see this pop up in my notifications 🤩 there’s nothing quite like seeing the beauty of rays and skates swimming! Beautiful music choice as well ❤️

You have the most relaxing voice, pleasure to listen...

Perfectly rated ever growing channel 1,000,000 + subscribers inevitable 🤝

You guys have the best produced, most professional and most informative deepsea biology videos on the internet. Thank you!

OMG YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES THIS IS THE BEST DAY EVER. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR MAKING AN EPISODE ABOUT THE RAYS AND SKATE :D.

Easily one of my favorite channels on RU-vid. This channel has helped me get to sleep so many nights, like a little light reading. The sea is incredibly fascinating

Manta rays and chimaeras are my favorite in the whole world! 🥰

manta ray is my favorite ray and it was awesome to see them included, as always top production and the footage used is in insanely good quality and to top it all off with that soothing voice, easily my favorite YT channel, animal and nature for sure

I think this might be the most relaxing and informative channel on RU-vid

I wish my science teacher would do this for classes so much fun to watch these 😩

I like how u add the definition of the word on screen! Super helpful Edit: 8:20 this man bumped into a rock

Honestly your Videos are as calming as listening to lofi and as informative as watching a full documentary. Much much love from germany. You provide free education for anyone who ccan watch Yt and you teach love for the nature. Thank you for that

I'm so glad to see skates and rays get some love. They are so often overlooked.

Mesmerising - that was beautiful to see.

spotted eagle rays have been my favorite animal for the past 5 or so years so this felt special, especially when that one was smooshing his face in the floor

Excellent! I love these videos. Keep up the great work.

THESE MAJESTIC GLIDERS OF THE DEEP ARE FOR ME THE ABSOLUTE DEFINITION OF BEAUTY IN THE DEEP SEA

Feel like snippets of this content would make a killing on tik tok. So so good

This channel is woefully underrated

Best voiceover style for this content hands down, great stuff!

Thanks again for a great ocean video. Your relaxed style an soothing voice combined with important knowledge makes your channel a real pearl.

a video of some of the most graceful creatures on the planet narrated by someone who's voice can only be described as a balm to the soul... Watching this nearly canceled out the effect 2020-2021 had on my psyche. thanks

Behold! The sea pancakes! 🥞 I can’t get over how rays and skates move around in the water, just flapping their little wings. It’s so adorable and they all look so goofy

Such an amazing documentary! Video's cinematography is superior. Beautiful moving picture and the voice-over makes it even more immersive.

I'm so thoroughly chuffed that I found this channel. Awesome work!

i’m very happy this channel’s getting a lot of attention, love the videos

Rays are the best 💕 just watching them is so otherworldly, like they're flying through water. Thanks so much!

This channel is a pure gold mine for everything I love about marine biology. They offer something I could never get from a documentary. It feels like I'm genuinely going on a journey with the amount of amazing footage and music.

As much as I love Babbel...that was quite the unexpected sponsor hahaha

I love waking up and seeing that you posted on my notifications tab :)

your channel is amazing never stop exploring the sea

Hats off to the editing and footage selection. Those footage are so wonderful 🍻

I love this group of animals, they really are something incredible and special. Wish they got more shine! Thanks for covering this, great video as always

Such an informative and chill video, this is so good

I love your vids, they're so high quality.

I love the hog nosed rays and the devil rays. I always have. They are fascinating to me. But my true passion is the Manta Ray. So gracefull.

Skates and rays are endlessly fascinating and relaxing ?!!

amazing

Another wonders of the nature world. With them being closely related to sharks.

Contente de voir que tu t'intéresses à notre belle langue! ( Happy to see you getting an interest for our beautifull langage!) Love your videos, discovered this channel last week and almost seen everything!

The polka dotted Ray with it snuffling in the sand is adorable

Great video

Amazing as always!

Keep up the great work !!! have a great day :D

As usual, amazing and extremely beautiful content. This channel is my favorite way to unwind and learn more. Pure serenity both visual and auditory. Absolutely brilliant. Thank you for these. 💙💙💙

Amazing scenes of deep sea animals

I was just researching rays the other day , so glad i found this they're so beautiful

i fear whats in the ocean but i love it here!!!

Wow the killerwhale killing the ray(?) Was so impressive

Amazing timing on this video. I've been reading about rays and other cartilaginous fishes the past few days.

Hello! I train in English listening with your channel. So it's sad subtitles disappeared. Anyway, thanks for the videos. Interesting, beautiful and with magic voice. (Sorry for my English).

I absolutely loved this video, I've never paid much attention to rays, but this video completely changed my mind, especially the acrobatic devil rays blew my mind...thank you so much for this video~ :)

I found it interesting that some rays live all the way down on the abyssal plain.

Thank you for your fascinating video of the great seabed, I LOVE

Your editing style is really compelling

Liked before it started playing, because I know it will be great.

Rays are some of my favorite species ever- especially manta rays! I loved this video thank you so much!!

hello ! i’m from russia ;) i’m so grateful for you and your channel, it is very interesting ! it is a pity so little is known about you :( hope you doing great ! thank you a lot !!!

Thank you. I always only thought rays were creepy. It's great to learn how complex and beautiful they are.

Leo, you have such a talent! You take subject matter that even some professionals render boring, and make us see it through your eyes! It's not just your soothing voice, it's the way you turn a phrase, and your superb script writing as well as your knowledge of the subject matter that all combine to make watching your videos such a pleasure! And I truly enjoyed this! I only wish I could give you more thumbs up!

Im saving all your videos to show my children when i have them. Absolutely fantastic

But how do the female devil rays know which male jumped the highest out of the water when they themselves are under the surface???

Rays can fly?! Stunning footage of them breaching. Thanks for the amazing content

Rays are one of my favorite animals 😍 I loved this

These videos are simply magical. I am so grateful.

Grabs my plush cownose ray) now is your time to shine, Karl! :D

They are very cute. I'd have a pet one if I had a large enough aquarium.

They remind me of an M.C. Escher illustration. Beautiful😻😻😻

I think they also jump to get parasites off , great doc. Wish this was longer 👍👍.

the migration is breathtaking, imagine seeing that in real life 😳😳

I will say that I really do enjoy your channel. Normally I'm not big into any form of biological study or anything similar. But you seem to have made it interesting and mastered your craft. Well done

I like the most about these videos is the explanation is awesome with scientific names,orders and phylum.

Just found this channel a few days ago. Great work, keep it going

Absolutely loved the video. As always.

Rays are my heart and soul. When I see them swimming I truly feel as if I have been one before and will return to be one. i love you ❤️

Please keep it up! Your programs are perfect for my homeschoolers. Thank you for the content.

top quality youtube content always from this channel.

I recently walked the beach for 400 yards. There were spent skate egg cases almost every step. The skates/ rays are taking over!

Skates and Rays, I could watch them for days.
