THEY say two heads are better than one - and that’s certainly true when it
comes to freaky animal virals. It was revealed how scientists had found the world’s first ever two-headed
bull shark.
Experts who examined the baby beast, found off the coast of the Gulf of
Mexico, confirmed it was indeed a double-header and not conjoined using
X-rays.we cast our net out over the freaky pond that is the web in search of
two-faced, two-headed and twice-as-odd beasts.
The Cat
Meet Frank and Louie: One cat with two faces and their own Guinness World
Record.
He's a Janus cat which means he was born with three eyes, two noses and two
mouths.
Most cats of this type - named after the Roman god with two faces - only live
for a matter of hours, but these two have been alive for more than 12 years.
The Cuban Slider turtle
This little fella was found by a police officer at the banks of the Almendares
River in Havana, Cuba.
The Piglet
Rudy, the two-headed pig, stands in the grass on the farm of Scott and Vicki
Vorwald, in Iowa, US. Rudy was sold to the Los Angeles-based animal rescue organization "Pigs
Without Partners" in late March 1998. Most two-headed pigs are
stillborn or die shortly after birth.
The Baby Croc
This photograph was taken at Samut Prakarn Crocodile Farm on the outskirt of
Bangkok, Thailand. The tiny crocodiles - born measuring 17cms long and weighing just 70g - share
a body and have a total of eight legs and two tails.
The snake
A US aquarium purchased this 6-year-old snake for around £12,000 after the
owner put an advert out for it. Experts swooped, knowing most two-headed snakes don't live longer than a
couple of months.
The tiny tortoise
This extremely rare tortoise was discovered in the Western Cape. Experts
reckon it might have been the product of a genetic deviation during the
development of the embryo.
The Cow
A cow gave birth to a calf with two heads in Georgia - but it was rejected by
its mother. Despite that, it managed to stay alive and was brought up drinking from
bottles.
