Villagers in northern Morocco were shocked by the birth of a two-headed calf, which was born on December 30.
The unusual animal was named Sana Saida, which means "Happy New Year" in Arabic. From the moment it was born, the calf has attracted a lot of attention. All the locals in the area flock to the farm to see him. He freely uses both of his mouths for nourishment. Such animals in the scientific world are known as polycephalic, which have more than one head.
However, this calf is not the only animal born with two heads in 2013. In October, a two-headed calf was born in Whiting, Vermont, USA, and was received by the locals as a blessing.
In another unusual case, earlier last year, a farmer in New Zealand delivered a stillborn calf with eight legs, four ears, a double body and one head to a local veterinary clinic. Last year one of the cattle farms in Anadarko, Oklahoma, USA, became famous for its six-legged calf. His "extra" legs grew from his back. Let's also remind that in January 2011 the two-headed cow was born in Georgia.
