Tis the Season [OC]

In most animal species, females carry and nurture the offspring. However, male seahorses (genus Hippocampus) are a rare exception. They possess a brood pouch, where females deposit eggs. Once inside, males fertilize and incubate the eggs, providing oxygen and nutrients. After a gestation period, males "give birth" by expelling fully formed baby seahorses into the water.

This unique reproductive role makes them one of the only species on Earth where males experience pregnancy.

Similar behavior is also observed in pipefish and sea dragons, relatives of the seahorse in the Syngnathidae family.

Woke up to find this on my kitchen floor.. I live alone and don’t own any board games…

The age-old question is cracked: the chicken came first.
Scientists at the University of Sheffield discovered that ovocleidin-17 (OC-17) — a protein essential for forming eggshells — is only found in a hen’s ovaries. That means no hen = no eggshell = no egg. Simple biology, not just philosophy.

So while evolutionary steps brought us proto-chickens, the first true chicken egg could only come from a chicken. Science wins this round.
