BBC camera crew films smalleye stingray for the first time

A BBC camera crew have managed to film a smalleye stringray, which is largest of the 70 known species of stingray, growing up to a 2 metre wingspan. The stingray was discovered in 1908 and has only ever been seen off the coast of southern Mozambique.

You can see some footage of it from the BBC website.
