Two-Headed Snake: A Wonder Of Nature In Yalta



Have you ever known there are such creatures as an albino two-headed snake? It has two brains. Each head, principal and subordinate, thinks and feeds separately.




The snake was brought to Yalta from Germany within the framework of the project realized in collaboration with the Kiev zoo. With its help it was planned to attract customers’ attention to the exhibition of poisonous snakes.

The life of the two-headed snake was estimated at 50 thousand Euros. Due to the presence of the little thing the exhibition attendance increased 50%.

Such a snake is a rare phenomenon as it seldom survives in natural environment.

It is 3 years old and 70 cm long.

The wonder of nature prefers eating mice of certain size once a week.

The process of feeding requires manual separation of the heads. Otherwise one head can be swallowed by the other one.

Don’t you think that each head should have a separate name?

Ultimate cat fort contest: Win an iPad 2!

We receive a lot of solicitations at theCHIVE, but when Grégoïre Aléxànder Fromâge, the eccentric owner of catforts.tumblr enlisted theCHIVE to give away an iPad 2 to whoever can construct the most rediculous cat fort on the planet, we took notice. We didn’t think he was serious until a package showed up with a brand new iPad 2, so we’re kind of obligated to give it away at this point. Runners up will get $100 from Petco. Top 10 will receive Chive Logo T’s.

We will choose the top 20, you decide the winner, runner up and top 10 best.

All submissions must be made to theCHIVE submit account here.

Deadline is August 9th.
Make sure to put “Cat Fort” in subject line of your submission.
Please include your email and phone number.

We expect to get a lot of submissions for this, so get creative with your cat fort. The more ridiculous, the better. Good luck!
