When I was in playa last year I think that we saw a couple while diving. I think that it's kinda interesting that all of these experts including the dms told us not to screw around with them, because if they get excited they may sting ya. Then this Steve guy goes and does exactly what they tell us not to do.
Up here in New England we have their smaller cousins, they are called skates. Instead of having a barbed tail, their tails are supposed to be hot wired. If you touch them when they are in a defensive mood they can give you a shock of about 220 volts.
I followed one for aobut 10 minutes. All it tried to do was get away, while at the same time it was wagging its tail.
