Did you know? When mating, the female seahorse transfers her eggs to the male, which he fertilizes in his pouch. In the male’s pouch, the eggs receive everything they need from oxygen to food. The gestation time varies from 14 days to 4 weeks. The birthing process can last up to 12 hours. [GIF: Male seahorse giving birth] | Nature | PBS
