Wow, thats what killed Steve? I didnt know what it looked like, but those people who killed the stingray are ignorant, i agree on this one it is wrong!

That's just disturbing.

Isn't there a law against killing stingrays? Can't they just strack this guy down from his e-bay account and arrest him?

I dont know about the laws and species.... but many people eat rays and skats and sharks
My Korean Godmother and I used to catch em and make yummy eggrolls

Maybe he eats em too? Why not sell the left-overs? I mean its not like the listing says anything about killing it in revenge for the croc hunter. These things have been getting killed for many many many years, now when someone does it people have an opinion.

Skat eggrolls, ugh.

Glove · #7 09/19/2006, 07:38 AM

skates*...

I dont recall ever eating any skat, but I have had lots of fast food so maybe

well people will buy anything, and as long as they do people will sell it. It says 'taken from a live stingray' That's a little cruel I think.

They can make leather out of stingray?

The leather shops here sell sting-ray leather (or at least that's what it looks like, some type of ray).

You can clip stingray barbs while they are alive...they actually grow back like our fingernails.

I have an opinion because this seller is trying to profit from the croc hunters death. These barbs have probably always been on sale, but to use the death of Steve Irwin to promote their item is just disgusting!!!

Exactly I remember a counselor at a summer camp had a whole necklace. From catch/release stingrays.
