Off the coast of Baja California, underwater photographers and free divers rescue a devil ray (mobula ray) severely entangled in a buoy line from a shark fisherman while sharks circle nearby; after being freed, the ray swims away and returns for a close pass described as a “thank you” circle. Don, a 100-year-old Royal Marines veteran who landed in the first wave at Juno Beach on June 6, 1944, receives France’s Legion of Honor, fulfilling what he called the last missing medal. Strong Island Animal Rescue League works to rehome more than 450 domesticated white pet rats found in a home; with help from a local animal hospital, many are treated for mites, eye infections, bite wounds, and other issues, about 10 are euthanized, and over 200 are placed in permanent or temporary homes. In Rhode Island, lawmakers debate ending the Mr. Potato Head specialty license plates after Hasbro’s move to Boston; the plates cost about $40 with roughly half donated to the Rhode Island Community Food Bank, prompting concern about impacts on food programs.
