The Mermaid Purse
This is a story about skates, not the kind you wear
on your feet but the kind that swim in the sea!
What Are Skates?
Skates are a type of fish. They are cousins to Ray
fish, such as sting rays, bat rays and manta rays.
Like other ray fish, skates have large wings that
they flap to help them move through the water.
Skates are very graceful swimmers and are not
dangerous to people.
