奇!美南卡羅來納州驚現雙頭無尾蛇 雙頭皆吐信互相拉扯

據英國《每日郵報》9月24日報導,美國南卡羅來納州的一個家庭在野外發現一隻罕見雙頭蛇。與普通兩段是一頭一尾的蛇不同,這條小蛇身體兩端各一個頭。

報導說,這條小蛇身體兩端各長有一個頭,每個頭都有兩隻眼睛,和一條快速吞吐的舌頭。其中一個頭稍大,也更佔有優勢,但是兩個頭看起來都可以控制身體。

當地生物部門鑒定後表示,這只是一條表皮粗糙的土蛇,雖然有兩個頭,但是並沒有毒性,也不會對人類產生危險,它的主要食物是蚯蚓和小型節肢動物。


'They both seem to control it:' Family finds snake with TWO HEADS - one on each end of its body

It may sound like something out of an ancient text, but a South Carolina family says the two-headed beast they have found at their home is very real.

While snakes with two heads alongside each other have been found in the wild before, this one has a head on each end of its body - and they appear to take shifts on which one is in control.

Each head has two eyes and a fast-moving tongue.

Fox Carolina reported that the small snake was found by workers at the home of Savanna Logan and her brother Preston, who are fascinated by the animal.

The kids say that they have been parading their special new pet at school to show off to their friends since it was found about three weeks ago.

The snake has been identified by the biology department at nearby Ware Shoals High School as a rough earth snake.

The children's mother, Tina Stewart, told Fox Carolina: 'One head’s is bigger and more dominant than the other, but they both seem to control the body.'

She added: 'The main head will do one thing and then the other part’s trying to go in the opposite direction.'

Even with two heads, the rough earth snake, or Virginia striatula, is not poisonous or considered dangerous to humans.

Its primary food source is earth worms and small arthropods, and it ranges in size from nine to 14 inches.

But while the snake pulls itself in opposite directions, young Savanna and Preston are also pulled in different directions on what to name the snake.

Preston told Fox Carolina: 'I want to name it Billy Bob.'
His sister chimed in: 'I'll just name it Oreo.'
