Cow-Nose Ray Threatens Virginia Oysters
In Gloucester Point, Virginia, the cow-nose ray is damaging oyster beds in the Rappahannock River and Potomac tributaries. The Virginia Institute of Marine Science reports oysters up to five inches crushed by the rays, with estimates that roughly 70 percent of Bald’s Point area oysters are destroyed. Rays, ranging 24 to 28 inches in this river area, have caused deep holes in river bottoms and fragment shells, affecting both 3- to 4-year-old and smaller oysters.
