A group of stingrays is called a “fever.” This term is thought to reflect the swift, fluid movements of stingrays as they swim together in groups. Stingrays are often found in shallow coastal waters and can gather in large numbers, especially in areas where food sources are abundant. While they may not form permanent social groups, they tend to aggregate in schools when foraging or during certain seasonal migrations. Their graceful and synchronized movements are a breathtaking sight, with each individual gliding effortlessly through the water, making the term “fever” a fitting descriptor for their collective presence.
