TOUR THEIR MAGICAL AND COMPLEX WORLD - a PBS FILM - Wonderful!

Here are some things to learn from this film

Seahorses have no teeth or stomach.
They live in coastal - shore areas all around the world - most every sea.

They are upright fish who use their tails to hold onto swaying sea grasses.

The male gives birth from a pouch, but he also fertilizes the eggs of the female.

See the film and learn about a unique scientific intervention that saved fishing and the seahorses.
