Bizarre.

This bizarre creature known as the ‘kite runner’  lived about 430 million years ago in what is now England.  The  sea creature apparently dragged its offspring around on strings like kites - a baffling habit not seen anywhere else in the animal kingdom.  Ten capsules tethered to its back appear to contain juvenile progeny, all at different stages of development. "There isn't an animal today that it's essentially related to."
