Why are their tails so curly? | ||||
|
Seahorses have unique curly tails that can grab on to objects for anchoring. We call this kind of tail prehensile, meaning it can wrap around and grab things - like a monkey’s tail. The curly shape, along with strong muscles, make this tail perfect for grabbing. Seahorses will also use their tail to grasp their mate in greeting rituals and reproduction.
