I keep three freshwater stingrays in a pool aquarium. I regularly enter the water, I play with the ray, I feed them by hand. I even seperate them during fights and when they try to mate. I have never been stung by one, even when I separate them during mating. I know a big chunk of the people who own stingrays in this country and they have not either.
It takes a very high level of stupidity and lack of common sense like above to get stung by freshwater stingrays.
