Like fish, for claps (egg). They comment on it in an anime, Namiuchigiwa no Muromi-san: the female lays the eggs and the male ejaculates on them.
Whales generally emit multiple sequences of sounds that resemble songs. But the only ones capable of singing seriously are humpback whales, according to zoologist Jacques Vielliard, from the Campinas State College (Unicamp). “Their sounds constitute melodic sequences of 20 minutes on average; practically a symphony”, affirms the scholar, an expert in bioacoustics. Between July and November 2000, Vielliard and the biologist Eduardo Arraut spent days in a small boat in the Abrolhos archipelago, off the coast of Bahia, to record the songs of humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae), marine mammals up to 16 meters long. and weighing 50 tons, also known as humpback whales because of the shape of their backs.
The five recorded hours of singing are made up of 20 song cycles, each lasting from 6 to 35 minutes. Throughout the reproductive period, humpback whales migrate from the cold waters of the South Atlantic, where they feed on plankton, small fish and crustaceans, to the warm waters of the Brazilian coast, mainly Abrolhos. Called baeines chanteuses by the French, humpback whales engage in long and elaborate courtships. While the females take care of the young, the males isolate themselves in huge circles, almost ten km in diameter.
What do mermaids call babies?
How does the mermaid get pregnant? The female lays eggs, which she then spreads in the water for the male to fertilize. There are, however, certain fish that fertilize their bodies through sexual activity or perform a sexual ritual.
Can a mermaid have a baby with a human? A close relationship with humans can allow them to reproduce. However, on rare occasions, babies of half-human, half-mermaid newts end up being born with flippers instead of arms or faces if genetic testing is not done.
Playing mermaids as sea creatures
If mermaids exist as true marine creatures then they have to continue a reproductive development similar to that of fish, they may be oviparous, ovoviviparous or mammals.
If they are oviparous, the females have to lay their eggs in the water and then be fertilized by the male.
