user posted imageIn recent years, there have been many cases of birth of creatures with two heads. People continue wondering for what reasons the nature surprises them so much. Is the Russian saying "One head is good, but two heads are better" true? In fact having two heads gives no advantages. Nevertheless, some risky scholars consider the opportunity of artificial growing people having two, three or more heads.Do you remember the stories in the press about the birth of creatures with two heads? For instance, in the USA a kitten with two heads was born - it had two mouths, two noses and two four eyes. The vets assured that little Image (the kitten"s name) had good chances to survive. However, it lived for only 4 days. There was a report that a child with two faces has been born in a Nigerian hospital recently. According to the first reports, the child is in good health. This information cannot be trusted much, because the two-headed kitten first was announced to be in a good health, and then it died.Having two heads is a different kind of phenomenon than having two faces. Two heads mean two separate brains. There were reports about piglet Rudi having two heads, who was born in 1998 in Iowa, USA and became a sort of celebrity.

Earlier, the birth of a similar piglet was registered in Wiskonsin, USA, but the piglet was stolen. A 1000 reward was announced for the piglet return, however it was not found. Unfortunately, there is no information about the final of the story.Similar animals can be seen among reptiles and amphibians - tortoises, snakes, lizards, crocodiles.

I saw a documentary about a guy who purposefully bred two-headed turtles, which I think is really cruel, because although he proved that they could live like that, it can't be very nice for the poor animals, with one brain wanting to go one way, while the other wants to go the opposite!
