Pregnancy has been traditionally defined as the period of time eggs are incubated in the body after the egg-sperm union.[1] Although the term often refers to placental mammals, it has also been used in the titles of many international, peer-reviewed, scientific articles on fish, e.g. Consistent with this definition, there are several modes of reproduction in fish, providing different amounts of parental care

Going off of this, it's just a matter of the term "pregnancy" being co-opted to describe something completely different from what it means in its original context. As does happen, even in science.

I still remember that as the advice a herpetologist have about holding a baby snapping turtle when I was in Boy Scouts.

There's one on zebra jumpers. Gonna have to get to that when I got a spare half hour.

Love those little guys!

I love jumpers because they're cute. The anime sized front facing eyes and movements that make them look so damn curious all the time—I just can't get over those.
