Each head on the calf has a separate brain, but they share control of organs and limbs. This is called polycephaly. This condition is believed to occur when an embryo begins to split during the formation of twins, but fails to completely separate leaving the twins attached. In general, animals with this condition rarely survive more than a few months. [Photos: IC]
