A rare two-headed snake has baffled the wildlife experts after it was found in the Dhenkikot forest range of Keonjhar wildlife sanctuary in Odisha, eastern India.
The rare serpent was discovered by Rakesh Mohalick from the Keonjhar district. The snake was newly born and was identified as the Wolf Snake which is a non-venomous species.
Video footage of the reptile was filmed by Rakesh Mohalick, a wildlife enthusiast and photographer. He also researches various species of wildlife and identified it.
The snake is 14cm long and has two fully formed heads, meaning it has four working eyes and two flickering tongues. Both its heads work independently and this becomes a challenge for such creatures to survive in the wild, according to Rakesh.
