The wild sex lives of marine creatures - Luka Seamus Wright

from TED-Ed · host TED-Ed

Take a peek beneath the ocean’s covers to discover the surprisingly inventive ways marine animals have sex.--On a reef in the Pacific Ocean, 17,000 camouflage groupers dart about in the cloudy water. It is, in fact, an underwater orgy— turned feeding frenzy. An orgy might seem like a rather flamboyant way to breed, but sex in the sea is a surprisingly inventive affair. So what other sneaky escapades are happening under the sea? Luka Seamus Wright offers a peek beneath the ocean’s covers.Lesson by Luka Seamus Wright, directed by Michelle O'Connell and Lisa Vertudaches.Music and sound by Phil BrookesSupport Our Non-Profit Mission----------------------------------------------Support us on Patreon: http://bit.ly/TEDEdPatreonCheck out our merch: http://bit.ly/TEDEDShop----------------------------------------------Connect With Us----------------------------------------------Sign up for our newsletter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdNewsletterFollow us on Facebook: http://bit.ly/TEDEdFacebookFind us on Twitter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdTwitterPeep us on Instagram: http://bit.ly/TEDEdInstagram----------------------------------------------Keep Learning----------------------------------------------View full lesson: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/the-wild-sex-lives-of-marine-creatures-luka-seamus-wrightDig deeper with additional resources: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/the-wild-sex-lives-of-marine-creatures-luka-seamus-wright#digdeeperAnimator's website: https://www.instagram.com/wheeliebinfire, https://www.wheeliebinfire.com, https://lisavertudaches.comMusic and sound: https://www.philbrookes.com & https://www.instagram.com/philbrookesuk----------------------------------------------Thank you so much to our patrons for your support!
