Produktbeschreibung
Seahorses are among the oddest of ocean creatures. They are terrible swimmers, but they have an uncanny ability to find their mates, which they do daily, and hold on with prehensile tales for hours on end. They also manage to be some of the most aggressive ocean hunters, and must eat all of the time as they lack stomachs and therefore they are ingesting into their tiny snouts much of the time. Seahorses have a mythical beauty, owing to their mating most likely, but they are also among the enviable few species in which the males carry the babies, or frys, and then give birth to two thousand at a time. Clearly we have a lot to learn about and from seahorses. This life-size guide presents captivating stories of species that range from less than an inch to nearly a foot in height and is authored by the foremost expert on seahorse taxonomy. "Seahorses" will appeal equally to those seeking a beautiful gift book, as well as those who are captivated by the intrigue of these iconically odd ocean dwellers. "
