The ocean takes up over 70% of the earth’s surface and it is so beautiful yet mysterious at the same time. Most of the events that take place are never recorded or filmed but when an opportunity arises like dolphins and whales migrating, it is incredible to watch.
In the following video, a rare occurrence where hundreds of thousands of Mobula rays were caught swimming in formation off the coast of Baja. The incredible footage was captured by National Geographic and there are so many Mobula rays that it is nearly impossible to view them distinctly and it is such a joy to watch.
