Baby Two-Headed Shark Discovered

It sounds like something from a low budget shark film, but a two headed shark has been discovered off the coast of India.

Although the shark was returned to the water by the fisherman who discovered it, it's doubtful that Danny Trejo has anything to worry about just yet. 

The tiny shark, thought to be most likely to be a spadenosw or a sharpnose shark, is common to local waters but is thought it is the first time one has been found with two heads in the area.

It's thought that the mutation was caused by genetic or metabolic disorders, viruses, pollution or even as a result of overfishing.
