The cow that belonged to the
aforementioned tongue didn’t fare very well except, perhaps, as
carne asada. But a rather unusual pair of rattlesnakes is doing
just fine after a 45-minute surgery at the Arizona Sonora Desert Museum
outside of Tucson. The two snakes were found as one – conjoined just
below the head – at a construction site. The Siamese-twin serpents
were taken to the museum, where Dr. Jim Jarchow successfully performed
the separation surgery. Museum officials told the press that they expected
the snakes to live long and healthy lives.
