I'm not so sure of this. Depending on the specie of stingray, the toxins would not have much immediate effect upon an opponent. Also, have you actually seen a stingray's tail? The ``stinger'' is not at the tip. It looks like a bony little dagger. A stingray's tail, even dried, is not as stiff or heavy as a sjambok, and thus would not have the same penetrating effect. - --== Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ ==-- Share what you know.
