Two Headed Snakes

two headed snake


Each head of a polycephalic animal has its own brain, and they somehow share control of the organs and limbs, though the specific structure of the connections varies. Animals often move in a disoriented and dizzy fashion, with the brains "arguing" with each other; some animals simply zig-zag without getting anywhere[8] Snake heads may attack and even attempt to swallow each other. Thus, polycephalic animals survive poorly in the wild compared to normal monocephalic animals.

One ambitious snake!

This picture shows a large Olive python capturing dinner — a wallaroo.

This is one big snake! If you look closely (click the image to enlarge it) you can see that part of the snake is disappearing out the right hand side of the frame. How much more of it is there, curled around the escarpment it so beautifully blends with?

This fascinating picture was taken in the Kimberley region of Western Australia ... It appears that the wallaroo is already dead but swallowing it will require an awesome feat of strength from the python.

Amazing, isn't it? I wonder, did the python actually manage to swallow its ambitious meal, given its precarious location? Or was it simply reeling in its catch, like any fisherman, to consume it in a more genial environment.

Big Bad Ass Snakes


This is a Burmese Python,


and this is a Reticulated Python.


She didn't have any trouble going through the fence BEFORE she had someone for dinner.


If a Python did have you for dinner, this is the last thing you would see!


After a really big meal, Pythons are fat and sleepy and not dangerous at all. This makes them easy to catch if someone comes up missing -- like the unfortunate man below!


He wandered away from the work site in the Amazon jungles, got sleepy and took a nap. The nap turned out not to be a such good idea after all.
