Cownose Rays are senselessly being killed in a contest in Chesapeake Bay. There is a prize for the highest weight which has the contestants shooting pregnant Cownose Rays while they are on the surface, mating or birthing. The pregnant females are prized due to the added weight of the baby Rays they are carrying.
