Oct 31, 2009 - 10:11 AM - by Frankie | A ghostly tale provided from Woodstock for your Halloween holiday! Thanks Doni!
 
One of the most elegant courtship rituals in the animal kingdom has been captured on film by a BBC crew.
The dance of the weedy sea dragon takes place every year in the shallow seas off the coast of Australia.
During the ghostly dance, two beautifully odd-looking fish mirror each other's every movement.
At the end of the ritual, the male fish is the one to get pregnant, giving birth two months later, a process the BBC crew filmed for the first time.
The dance of the weedy sea dragon is captured for the BBC natural history series Life.
Weedy sea dragons are a type of fish related to seahorses and pipefish.

An international meeting on climate change in Copenhagen has heard the prospects of saving the world's coral reefs now appear so bleak there are plans to freeze samples to preserve them for the future. Describing it as a last-ditch attempt, a team of scientists from the UK is collecting reef samples that will be frozen and cultivated in what they are describing as an ark.
The scientists say if humans do not do something soon to reduce the damage, the reefs will be reduced to rubble by the middle of the century.
