June 15, 2006 - Human dads will be the first to tell you how hard fatherhood can be-sleepless nights, dirty diapers-and that's only after the baby is born.

In the wild, the biggest Father's Day presents should probably go the seahorse, one of the only male animals known to get pregnant and give birth. Click Here to watch the video.

Seahorse - Here to Stay?
In my earliest memory of visiting an aquarium, the creatures that first caught my eye were seahorses. These animals with the head of a horse, pouch of a kangaroo, and tail of a monkey provided me with the first clue that a completely different world truly existed below the sea. Seahorses have a mythical quality one can almost imagine them sharing the sea with mermaids. But these animals are real and play an important role in the marine ecosystem. Despite the fact that research on seahorses only began in the last decade, it is clear that in the past several years various threats have caused the fate of seahorses to grow increasingly dim.
