This is Zeus, a giant manta ray who used to live at the Atlantis' aquarium in The Bahamas...until last week. He got so large ---13 feet in diameter and a 3-foot mouth--- that they decided to let him go back into the ocean. They used a helicopter to lift and then lower him into the Atlantic.

Thanks for visiting and for your comments!
