Male anglerfish will spontaneously switch sex from male to female if they encounter another male, and they have evolved to transport eggs for long distances and to keep a female alive inside its stomach for years at a time until they are ready to mate. They have also evolved to be a parasite on the female anglerfish to ensure they are never separated.
