An extremely rare 2headed wolf snake was discovered in India and it is baffling wildlife experts as its 2 heads were seen by locals fighting over food.

The rare snake was found in the Dhenkikot forest range of Keonjhar wildlife sanctuary in Odisha, eastern India.

Rakesh Mohalick, a man from the Keonjhar District, found the snake.

The snake was reportedly newborn and was identified as the Wolf Snake, which is a non-venomous snake.

Mohalick, a wildlife enthusiast and photographer, identified the snake because he also does some research about them.

He said the snake was around 14 cm long and has 2 fully formed heads, which also means it has 4 eyes and 2 tongues.

Both its head work independently, which also means it will have a lot of a hard time surviving in the wild.

He said that one of the heads is slightly more developed than the other head.

Rakesh said:

One among the two heads is slightly more developed and both are known to fight over food.

The snake was released by Rakesh back into the wild.
