Seahorses

• ‎Seahorses are the only animals in the entire animal kingdom in which the male, not the female gives birth and cares for their young! The female seahorse deposits the eggs into the male’s small pouch like a kangaroo where the eggs are fertilized and where the baby seahorses grow until it is time for them to be born. 

• Seahorses are monogamous and mate for life! Every morning, they come together with their partner, dance, change their color, twirl around with linked tails and then separate for the rest of the day. 

• While mating, seahorses utter musical sounds.

• Sea horses have a voracious appetite and can they graze continually and consume 3,000 or more brine shrimp per day.
