After what happened to the Croc Hunter, I want no part of sting rays.

Well, you can't use that as an example. Steve Irwin was nutts. He played with every living thing good or bad. Every time I watched him I cringed thinking he was going to die on camera.
He also took the wrong approach with the Ray, he swam on top of him like a predator would.
Also, the ray that killed him was about 2-3 times the size of the ones in these ray farms.

Steve Irwin would still be alive today had he not pulled the barb out. Someone just recently got hit in the heart by a ray too, and he lived because he didn't try to pull it out.

The odds of getting attacked by a ray is about the same of being in a plane crash. It's rare.
