PBS Eons: How Plate Tectonics Gave Us Seahorses

PBS Eons has a new episode on Youtube.  This one is about the evolution of the seahorse.

How did seahorses — one of the ocean’s worst swimmers — spread around the globe? And where did they come from in the first place? Thanks to Franz Anthony (http://franzanth.com) for the incredible syngnathid reconstructions used in this episode!

    FYI… this was found by my dad, john Stade approximately 20 years ago. My dad died this July and my mom thought it was time to share it with the world.
