🌊 #FunFactFriday: What’s on the menu for seahorses? Seahorses are skilled predators that depend on live, moving prey. Their diet includes tiny crustaceans and other small animals. #SavingSeahorses #ProjectSeahorse 📸 © Tom Van Hout / Guylian Seahorses of the World

CT scans are revolutionizing the study of seahorses & their relatives. This week we welcomed @IUCNSeahorse member Graham Short @Syngnathids, who showed how this tech reveals hidden skeletal details—leading to new species, clearer taxonomy & insights into syngnathid reproduction.
