Did you know that Male Seahorses get Pregnant and give birth?(both)
In the world of seahorses it isn鈥檛 the females who get pregnant. When they mate, female seahorses deposit the eggs in the male鈥檚 pouch to be fertilised. The male then gives birth to the babies anywhere between nine and forty-five days later. The theory is this speeds up the process of delivery. Since the female counterpart needs time to produce more eggs, the male takes charge of the fertilisation and incubation.
Up to 2500 babies may be born at anyone time, depending on the species.
