The sea horse is yet another marine animal that's heading into troubled waters. They are under threat from overfishing, habitat loss and use in traditional medicine and home aquariums.
Today, many species of seahorses are on the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List.
However, it’s not all bad news. An international crowdsourcing project called iSeahorse is allowing people to help improve our understanding of these animals, knowledge that will be used to protect them against multiple threats.
