Why don't female seahorses carry the eggs?
Female seahorses don't have a pouch; they just have eggs. The males have a pouch where the female deposits up to 2,000 eggs. Biologists think seahorses developed the pouch as a way to ensure the species survives. For example, if a female had all the eggs and had to bear offspring, all the babies could die if she got eaten. If a male gets eaten, the most offspring lost is up to 2,000 eggs. But there are always other males that can mate with the female who has the eggs to deposit.
