Meeting a SeaEdmond

Meeting a SeaEdmond

Our week of diving is continuing at camp and we are meeting a seahorse- or a SeaEdmond as we like to call them! Everyone ready? Grab those flippers and let’s goooooo!

Lined Seahorse Fun Facts:

• These tiny crustacean eaters are fish!
• Lined seahorses camouflage in with their surroundings and ambush their prey.
• Their eyes can rotate around and move independently of each other.
• Males are larger and have longer tails than females.
• They mate for life.
• Like other seahorses, the males incubate the eggs in a pouch. They give birth to the baby seahorses. They are about the size of a flat thumbtack.
• These little guys are not strong swimmers and attach to sea grass or other substrate to protect themselves.
