Biologist Ricardo Gomes argued the absence of other dead species on the beach indicates the incident was likely not caused by pollutants or a lack of oxygen in the water, but possibly a fishing technique known as trawling.
- Dozens of dead stingrays appeared on a beach in Rio de Janeiro this week, sparking confusion and concern in the local community.
Local fishermen reported the first sightings early on Tuesday. A woman who lives in the fishing village said she noticed the incident shortly after dawn, prompting the arrival of vultures. "This made us all sad. We've never seen the death of stingrays like this here," said fisherman Renato dos Reis Oliveira.
Biologist Ricardo Gomes, from the Mar Urbano Institute, argued the absence of other dead species on the beach indicates the incident was likely not caused by pollutants or a lack of oxygen in the water.Trawling is a fishing technique that involves pulling a net through the water behind one or more boats.
"This is not place, so this is strange even for the people who are here and who live off fishing," said environmentalist Isabeli Delois.
