News reaching us from far away Asia is that a two-headed pig has been born in China
The local vet who delivered the little porker said that the piglet suffers from deformity and is unlikely to survive.
The pig has two snouts, two ears and what looks to be two and a shared eye, yet only one body holds up the two heads.
The deformation could be due to axial bifurcation (a process where an embryo is dividing into two organisms but it stops and the process is incomplete).
