One of the most enduring tropes in film and TV is the pregnant woman, in labor, gripping the father-to-be by the arm with incredible strength and screaming, "This is all your fault!"
But if we lived in a world where one particular species was making all the entertainment content out there instead of us humans (or 99.9% of every other living creature), that classic scene just might get reversed.

Correct Answer: Seahorse
The answer is: Seahorse. After an intricate courtship dance, female seahorses transfer mature eggs to the male, who then carry them and ultimately give birth — with up to around 1,000 babies at a time. Sea dragons, which are essentially seahorses but with a cooler name, are the only other animals that do so.Source
