Jason Elizondo Stab’s fishing trip in San Luis Pass in Galveston County, Texas, took a surprising turn when he landed a pregnant stingray.

According to this report Stab noticed the stingray was pregnant because of her size but he was not expecting to give birth right away. Stab pulled his phone out and started to record only moments before she gave birth to multiple stingrays. Afterward, Stab and his friends safely returned the mother stingray and the babies back to the water. Credit: Jason Elizondo Stab via Storyful
