Genetic Mix-up Results in Two-headed Lizard!
The bobtail lizard, a type of skink, is a easily recognised in its home country of Australia because it is a very common creature and is often kept as a pet. And at the reptile park at Henley Brook in Perth, a new addition is making itself at home – a two-headed bobtail lizard, that was rescued by the Park.
This very robust creature has caused quite a stir, because despite this abnormality, it appears to be doing well (although it is not expected to live very long). Eve more amazing is its ability to eat from both heads!
So, is this 2 critters in one? Or one very confused critter?
