An expert recognized the boy's quickness and friendliness when giving birth to the rays, but emphasizing Wilson's good intentions could be counterproductive.

"What he does is very dangerous and risky. I don't know if Wilson has been stung by venom. Although the boy seems to care about the condition of the stingray, helping it in this way can also cause harmful to it, " said Perry Hampton, deputy director of animal management at the Pacific Aquarium in California, USA.

"Giving birth to wild animals is not a good idea. This action can cause pressure and negatively affect animals in many ways. The way the boy holds in the breathing hole to lift them is no different. Hampton's nose, " Hampton said.
