Two-headed calf (RIP)
This two-headed calf was euthanized in King William's Town, South Africa last week. Born on a stock farm, the calf was only a day old and very weak. RIP, little mutant calf. From Daily Dispatch Online:Two-headed calf born in EC“When it got here it was still conscious and breathing from both noses, but it was very weak and might not have survived another day,” Rademeyer said.
Although both heads were conscious, the reaction from one of them was visibly slower than the other, she said. Both sets of eyes and tongues were moving...
“These animals seldom survive.”
