In Seahorse families, Dads do the Birthing

🐴✨ Male Seahorses Give Birth! Yes, Really. 🤯

Unlike almost every other species, male seahorses are the ones that carry and deliver babies! 🍼🐠

Females deposit eggs into a pouch on the male’s belly, where he fertilizes and nurtures them. After 2-4 weeks, he goes through contractions and gives birth to up to 2,000 tiny seahorses! 😱

Nature said, “Your turn, guys.” 😂
