SEA HORSE

After the sea horse is hatched, males use contractions to push the young sea horse out in the water.

The sea horse does not have a stomach, but they do have a digestive system.

Sea horses can change color which is also known as camouflage. They do this because they can blend with their environment.

They can change to a dark-brown to red or green.

The sea horse can reach an average of 5 inches within one year.

The female seahorse places eggs into a pouch which is located on the front side of a male sea horse.
