*Video Title: The Incredible Role Reversal: Male Seahorses as Caregivers! 🐴💙*

*Video Description:*

Welcome to our channel! In this fascinating episode, we dive deep into the extraordinary world of seahorses (genus Hippocampus) and explore a remarkable twist on traditional reproductive roles in the animal kingdom. Did you know that male seahorses are the ones who gestate their young? That's right! Unlike most species where females take on the primary caregiving role, male seahorses have evolved to become the caretakers of their offspring.

Join us as we uncover the incredible process of seahorse reproduction. Female seahorses deposit their eggs into a specialized pouch located on the male's abdomen—a structure that functions much like a womb. This unique adaptation allows males to fertilize and nurture the eggs until they hatch. But that's not all! Over a period of 10 days to several weeks, the male seahorse undergoes fascinating physiological changes to support the developing embryos.

In this video, we'll explore:
The biology of the male seahorse’s brood pouch and its function.
The process of fertilization and embryo development within the pouch.
