Two-Headed Turtles
The core premise of my philosophy and of this blog is that things either exist or they don’t. Until this evening when I was watching King5 News, I didn’t know that two-headed turtles exist.
The Reptile Zoo in Monroe, WA has one on display. It’s named Pete and Repete (or Repeat?). It’s ten years old. (video)
I think it’s interesting that it has two names, one for each head I guess. But it is just one turtle, isn’t it?
Here’s a picture of a baby two-headed tortoise.
And Jack Hanna shows off a two-headed turtle on David Letterman.
Also on YouTube is a video of a two-headed turtle with its heads at opposite ends of its shell instead of side by side, like the ones shown above. I wonder if each head can see the other. I think this creature must live a very confusing life.
