Skate and Ray (Class Chondrichthyes) Wings (WRS)

In relation to skates and rays, means the pectoral fins severed from the body by a cut no further back than the spiracle, proceeding parallel to the edge of the gill openings, then proceeding down the side of the gut cavity, and exiting at the joint between the pectoral fin (being the wing flap) and the pelvic fin (being the next lobe on the body), and the skin on.

Acceptable. However, a cut which recovers more of the wing is acceptable.
