A tiny, two-headed turtle—weighing roughly the same as a nickel—was discovered on Cape Cod in Massachusetts, marking an extremely rare natural phenomenon. The unusual specimen, described as a "diprosopus" due to its double-headed formation, has drawn scientific curiosity and public fascination. Biologists are examining whether the condition stems from a genetic mutation or developmental anomaly during early growth. The find highlights the occasional emergence of rare congenital traits in wildlife, offering researchers a chance to study such anomalies up close.
