Rare Giant Turtle Killed in Gaza

This endangered two meter long leatherback turtle (largest and heaviest of all living turtles) was unlucky and got caught by Palestinian fishermen near Gaza City. It was slaughtered and eaten by the fishermen who said its blood was an aphrodisiac among other therapeutic qualities. A Reuters cameraman said the fishermen collected the giant turtle’s blood and gave it to children suffering from trauma and adults with back problems.

Rare Two Headed Snake

Two Headed Snake 01

This is a rare two headed snake found by a farmer in a village in Alicante, Spain. The snake seems to be able to use both of its heads at the same time and Spanish scientists are still studying if the snake has two separate digestive tracts and if a head dominate the other. The chances of a two headed snake surviving in the wild is very slim as both would often fight over which head will swallow the prey as well as difficulty in deciding which direction to go.
