The '''Manta''' is a small flying [[Metal Heads|Metal Head]] that only appears in the [[Eco Mine]] in [[Jak II]].
Mantas are an aberration of nature, living in the [[Eco Mine]]s. They look like sea dwelling manta rays yet their chosen domain is high in the air rather than underwater. Their bulky wings make them rather slow so they are only dangerous if you are being inept. Use the [[Yellow Mod#Blaster|Blaster]] to shoot them at a distance.
