Two-headed Pig Born In China by iRepFactmart: 9:33am On Apr 14, 2013
On the heels of recent news about a two-headed bull
shark, a two-headed pig has been born in a village in
east China's Jianxi province, according to the news
reports.
The photo shows a pig with two snouts, two ears and what appears to be a shared eye. A local veterinarian told the AFP news agency the animal is suffering a deformity and is unlikely to survive.
The deformity may be the same condition, called
"axial bifurcation," that researchers determined was
the cause of the two-headed bull shark in a study
published this March in Journal of Fish Biology.
It results from an embryo splitting into two separate
organisms, or twins, but the process is incomplete.
"Halfway through the process of forming twins, the
embryo stops dividing," Michael Wagner, a
researcher at Michigan State University, told
LiveScience.
The mutation, he added, occurs across animals,
including humans.
While rare, in addition to the pig shown here and the
shark, two-headed turtles, snakes, kittens, and other
critters have been reported in recent years.
