The **Stingray** is a tier 8 Ocean animal in Mope.io. It's the equivalent of the Cobra, Giraffe, Snowy Owl, Walrus, and Camel.

## Technical

* Upgrades from the Zebra, Donkey, Macaw, Turtle, Muskox or Warthog at 25K XP.
* Upgrades to the Pufferfish, Gorilla, Cheetah, Toucan, Snow Leopard or Rattlesnake at 40K XP.
* It can hide in large-sized Hiding Holes and whirlpools.
* The Stingray can consume any type of food in the game, other than the conch, clam, cactus, aloevera, coconut, banana, and large meat. Prey of the Stingray includes all animals below it within the range of tier 7 to tier 4 (Turtle to Sea-horse).
* Predators of the Stingray includes all animals above it within the range of tier 9 to tier 17 (Pufferfish to Black Dragon)
* The special ability of the Stingray is to emit an Electric Shock; an electric radius will appear for a second or two, stunning and slightly damaging every animal in its range regardless of its position on the food chain. The electric shock takes approximately 9.5 seconds to recharge.

## Appearance

### Stingray

The Stingray is blue-gray. It has two triangular flaps and it has a small rounded snout. Its eyes are small with some shadow, colored dark-gray, underneath. The end of its body is round with a long thin tail that features a sharp point. Two tiny barbs are located at the very beginning of the tail.

### Gold Trim

The Gold Trim Stingray looks the same but with a gold patch around each eye and a golden tail. The back of its body is a lot pointier and the barbs are larger.

### Phantom Ray

The Phantom Ray is very pale blue. The flaps are smaller and with 4 rounded bumps each. Its eyes lack pupils and are relatively far apart, with a small shadow under each. It has slight eyebrows. The head and body each have a white line splitting the center. Its body has very faint spots and two black gill slits. Its tail has a large darker barb at the end, complete with a small fin at the base and a black unlit lantern with blue glass hanging off the tail.

### Chocolate Ray

The Chocolate Ray is russet brown with very round flaps, looking like a pancake. Its body is spotted and it has a lighter line down its back. A large highlight can be seem near its tail. Its tail is rather thick with a large barb and two fins at the base. Its eyes are cinammon brown with small spots above and shadows underneath.

### Old/Legacy

The old Stingray is colored gable green and has two triangular fins with a lighter hue at the tip of it, the same lighter hue that outlines the eyes in an egg shape. It has 2 flaps on its sides and a long slender tail.

## Strategy

* As Stingray, the fastest and most productive way to proceed to tier 9 is to consume food sources such as kelp and red mushrooms.
	+ Kelp is fairly common in the Ocean, while red mushrooms are located on islands; the latter will be slightly harder to eat due to water loss from moving on to dry ground.
	+ Red mushrooms are also common in the two rivers. But unless the player's current location is close to a river, they should simply just eat kelp.
* Hunting for prey is not advised, due to it being a waste of time for animals at tier 8 since they can quickly and more easily level up through farming food alone.
	+ In the case that prey is wounded or conveniently near, the player should utilize the Electric Shock ability that the Stingray has, by pressing `W` when any prey is in a close radius of the player.
	+ While Turtles are a tier below the Stingray and will thus provide the most XP out of all prey, Jellyfish and Squid will be easier to kill due to them not being able to climb on hills/rocks or move freely on islands. Notably, any non-Ocean prey that can be seen should be pursued, as it will most likely be slow in water and an easy catch.
* If there is a predator incoming, and they are very close to the player, the Electric Shock ability should be used as long as the predator is close. That will buy the player a lot of time to easily escape.
	+ However, do not dive too early as the predator will know to dive themselves.
	+ Especially if the player sees a Swordfish charging or a Pufferfish inflating, use it to stun them and deactivate their ability!

## Trivia

* Sting damage used to overlap with other zaps, and other animals used to be able to be zapped while diving.
* The old message read: "Upgraded to STINGRAY! Glide around and eat turtles!".

### Glitches

* When upgrading, there used to be a typo in the upgrade message, in which "electric" was misspelled as "electic."
* When Stingray was chosen, it was formerly misspelled as "Stringray."
