Amazing Animal Families

Swan families have both parents caring for the babies, which cannot fly for months, sometimes being carried on their parents' backs. Cheetah mothers raise their cubs alone as the cubs' eyes do not open for two weeks, requiring much help from their mothers who later teach them to hunt. In seahorse families, the fathers have pouches on their stomachs where they keep the eggs until they hatch, taking responsibility for the care of the eggs and babies.
