Skates and Rays are Fish Related to Sharks
- "Skates and rays are fish that are closely related to sharks. Together these animals make up the elasmobranchs, a subclass of cartilaginous fish. Instead of having skeletons made of bone, sharks, rays, and skates have skeletons made of soft, pliable cartilage." - excerpt from OneWorldOneOcean website.
