The
Life Cycle
- The life cycle of a Wana is not
a very complex thing. The male releases his sperm into the shallow
water, and when the female Wana smells it she release her eggs
into the sea. An incredible thing about the Wana is that when
the male starts to release his sperm, all the other males and
female Wana in the area come together.
- At the same time all the
other Wana release eggs and sperm, this is a smart thing to
do because when they come together the eggs and sperm have a
greater probability of meeting and creating a fertilized egg.
- When
the fertilized eggs stick to the rocks the Wana is born, and
lives on the coral, eating seaweed and other things that are on
the rock.
