    Incredible two-headed snake: a head at each end of the snake!

    Pretty bizarre and something I would never have thought possible:

    Can't see it surviving very long at all without a vent, to be honest.

    Where does the poo go was my first thought. I too was hoping for pics.

    If nothing ever changed, there would be no butterflies.

    I'm sure it has a vent... somewhere, but I also wonder about the other organs such as the lungs, stomach, etc. Very strange.

    There's a video of the snake on the link that I posted. Were you not able to see it, or were you just asking about clearer, larger pics? Unfortunately the video is all I've been able to find.

    I tried to look at the horrible pics and think it's just a nubby tail that they think is another head. Hey, I could be wrong.

    I hope they turn this thing over to a university herpetology department when it passes or they decide they no longer want to keep it. I worked with earth snakes somewhat in college as an undergrad research assistant and based off of their ecology alone I can't see this thing surviving too long in captivity, two headed or not.

    Here's another video with more footage, but the reporter doesn't seem convinced that she saw two heads. I think it will turn out to be a one-headed snake...
