The best fathers in the world

NatGeo introduced images of devoted fathers with the most children in the animal world, multiplying Father's Day (the third Sunday of June).

Long horned owl is very popular in South and North America, very dedicated in the role of husband and father. At the end of every winter, when his partner is busy in the nest of two or three eggs, the male flies away to feed both of them. It brought mice and small squirrels back to the nest. When the egg hatches into a baby, the father's job is harder than ever, he must earn more to eat three more.

Flamingos are lovely husbands and devoted dads. Although living in a village of hundreds of thousands of children, the pink flock still lives in a monogamous way. The male flamingos escorted his wife in a responsible way when she found her nesting place, then helped her to build lovely clay nests. The two took turns brooding and protecting the nest, and taking care of the young.

Red foxes are responsible fathers, have fun playing with the young and go to get food for the whole family. Three months after birth, young children must feed themselves. The fox did not allow his children to starve, but he often hid food near his children, to teach them how to sniff for prey.

Seahorses do not play with children or help them with their homework. But seahorses do something extraordinary than fathers - they give birth to children. Seahorses are one of the few creatures on earth that males are pregnant. They often live in warm and near-shore warm waters.

Emperor penguins often live in the Antarctic icy region. Every breeding season, females lay eggs and let them go to the sea looking for food. Of course, the task of incubating those precious eggs falls on the shoulders - or rather, on the feet - of the males.

The father of the emperor penguins stood and protected the eggs for two months. During that time, they did not eat anything, so their health depended entirely on natural conditions in Antarctica. When the baby hatches, the fathers feed them with milk produced from their father's esophagus. Until the mother bird returned with a stomach full of food, the new bird was allowed to go to the sea to find something stuffed into his stomach.

Oreophryne frogs often live in Papua, New Guinea. Frog father is responsible for hatching young frogs. Every night, they hugged baby frog bags to keep their moisture and protect them from predators.

Male African lions are a confusing father, sometimes full of responsibility but sometimes lazy. They often lie in the shade, not looking at the young while the wives have to risk their lives. Whenever the wife brought the food back, they were present and affirmed the right to eat first, very much when the cup was left with only a bit of bone for the wife and children.

But when the safety of the family is threatened, the instinct of the African lion's father's instincts rises. Then they will bring out all their famous aggression to protect the herd, including about a dozen female lions and over 20 young lions.

Gorilla male silver back often plays the role of patriarch. As the owner of a family of up to 30 members, they are responsible for leading children to find food, resolving disputes in the tribe and fighting with threats from outside, especially from but Other male gorilla. Usually enemies often eat gorillas with small silver backs when they want to occupy an enemy family.

Being a father, a silver-backed gorilla played enthusiastically with the children; but also quickly becomes fierce if any young child is stubborn or wants to challenge his father's dominant role.
