There Are Different Kinds of Great Fathers

There Are Different Kinds of Great Fathers
It isn't just in humans that fathers show such a wide degree of parenting styles, roles and responsibilities. The same is true in the animal kingdom.

Perhaps the most famous of all animal fathers are seahorses. They are one of the only male animals in the world to get pregnant. The female deposits her eggs into his brood, then he fertilizes the eggs and carries them to term. As you can see in the image, they can get quite large. Seahorses can deliver as few as 5 babies or as many as 1,500. On average though, the numbers are around 100-200.



After a summer of hunting and feeding, Emperor Penguins enter their breeding season in the fall, where each mother produces only a single egg. After, she transfers the egg to her mate, she spends the rest of the winter in the open water. The father penguins huddle together, guarding the egg, keeping it warm while rests on their feet. It is covered by a fold of skin, protecting it from the -30 degree weather. By time the egg has hatched, the father penguins will have lost 45% of their body weight. They then leave to feed at sea.



Bald Eagle’s mate for life, and parent many eaglets together, often returning to the same nest year after year. Both eagles take turns adding sticks to the nest and keeping the eggs warm until they hatch. At the beginning of their eaglet’s life, the fathers do most of the hunting and feeding by gently placing small pieces of meat into the young bird’s mouths. As the eaglets mature, both parents care for their young together until the baby birds can fly and hunt on their own.



A hardhead catfish doesn’t get pregnant like a seahorse, but he does put up to 48 of his fertilized eggs in his mouth and carries them with him for 60 days. If that wasn’t uncomfortable enough, he doesn’t eat for this entire period.



Male lions often get a bad reputation as they laze around in the shade while the female lions hunt all day. However, they will put their lives on the line when it comes to protecting their territory, their females, and their cubs. They’ve evolved to grow magnificent manes to protect their necks and heads. Unfortunately, their manes make them stand out while hunting, whereas the females perfectly camouflage with the savanna. The lionesses hunt and provide for the pride, allowing the males and cubs to eat first, and in return, lion father’s do whatever it takes to protect his family.

 Of course, animals don't celebrate Father's Day, but some of them are real "great dads" devoted to their offspring. The above are only a few examples.

Can’t imagine too many human males taking on the pregnancy challenge
