The Two Headed Albino Snake (Kiev Zoo on loan to Yalta.)

via EnglishRussia:

The process of feeding requires manual separation of the heads. Otherwise one head can be swallowed by the other one.

Have you ever known there are such creatures as an albino two-headed snake? It has two brains. Each head, principal and subordinate, thinks and feeds separately. The snake was brought to Yalta from Germany within the framework of the project realized in collaboration with the Kiev zoo.

The life of the two-headed snake was estimated at 50 thousand Euros. Due to the presence of the little thing the exhibition attendance increased 50%. Such a snake is a rare phenomenon as it seldom survives in natural environment. It is 3 years old and 70 cm long. The wonder of nature prefers eating mice of certain size once a week.
