A Stomper was thrilled after spotting what appeared to be three rays swimming in the waters near Waterway Point in Punggol.<\/p>\n
Stomper Aud <\/strong>shared videos of the wildlife sighting<\/a>, which she captured on July 18 at about 2.50pm.<\/p>\n The footage shows the dark silhouettes of what appear to be rays gliding just beneath the surface of the water.<\/p>\n Aud said there were three of them in total.<\/p>\n It was her first time encountering the creatures there, and she was so captivated that she stayed for a while.<\/p>\n \u201cI felt overwhelmed when I spotted a few stingrays,\u201d she told Stomp. \u201cI stayed for quite some time hoping to see more of them.\u201d<\/p>\n It is unclear from the footage which species of ray the Stomper saw. There are more than 600 species of rays worldwide.<\/p>\n In February last year, the National Parks Board (NParks) advised members of the public not to fish or enter a pond at Hampstead Wetlands Park in Seletar Aerospace Park after a ray was spotted there<\/a>.<\/p>\n NParks said at the time that the ray\u2019s presence in the pond could have been the result of an unauthorised release.<\/p>\n Members of the public are urged not to release animals into Singapore\u2019s parks and nature reserves, as the animals may not be able to fend for themselves.<\/p>\n Those caught releasing wildlife<\/a> can be fined up to $5,000.<\/p>\n Stomp has contacted NParks for more information.<\/p>\n Have something to say?
