How do a male and a female catfish mate?

In: Animal Life [Edit categories]

Answer:

Catfish mate in the springtime, in warm water. The type of insemination that is most common tends to be internal. The male catfish may place his sperm in the oral cavity of the female catfish, and she may also allow the sperm to pass into her digestive system. Catfish do not leave their eggs, they take care of them.
