Woman Finds Strange Snake-like Creature In Her Garden by carinmom(f): 12:14pm On Mar 25, 2017
A woman in Argentina stumbled upon a strange two-headed creature that had skin similar to a snake's in her garden. The creature measured just 10cm long but looked so creepy that the woman recoiled in horror. Some believe it is a species of caterpillar.

While on a walk through her garden, a woman in the Argentinian city of Santa Fe recently came across a strange, "two-headed" creature that crawled on the ground and had skin similar to a snake's.

The strange creature that appeared to have two heads
46-year-old Luján Eroles was so horrified by the eery sight that she shouted out to her friends, fearing that it might be poisonous.

Eroles said of the creature that measured just 10cm long: "I had never seen anything like it, it was just like a snake and its eyes were so strange."

The creature had snake-like skin
Eroles decided to take a video of the creature and posted it online to seek advice on what the creature could be. her Facebook post quickly went viral and attracted thousands of comments.

Some speculated that it was a disabled snake, while others thought it to be some kind of a mutant animal. However, many offered a more plausible explanation—that it was a Hawk-Moth Caterpillar that often develops large eye markings and snake-like skin to trick predators that it is bigger than it really is.
