People are flocking to the Nandankanan Zoological Park in India’s Orissa state to see the two-headed turtle, which was born on Monday, media reports claim. Sanjeet Kumar, deputy director of the Nandankanan Zoological Park, told Indian media that a red-eared slider laid an egg on the sand a few days ago, from which two babies hatched. We take full care of our turtles and go to great lengths to provide a safe environment within the park’s reptile enclosures. So far, the two-headed turtle hatchlings are healthy and active and are moving around the enclosure normally.

People are flocking to the Nandankanan Zoo in the Indian state of Orissa to see the two-headed turtle that was born on Monday, media reports claim.
Sanjeet Kumar, deputy director of the Nandankanan Zoological Park, told Indian media that a red-eared slider laid an egg on the sand a few days ago, from which two babies hatched.
Zoologists take full care of newborn turtles and go to great lengths to provide a safe environment within the park’s reptile enclosures.
“Zoo curators and veterinarians are consulting with the Wildlife Institute of India (WII) and experts to save the lives of hatchlings. We are trying to provide a suitable environment for the new hatchlings,” Kumar told Kalinga TV.
So far, the two-headed turtle hatchlings are healthy and active and are moving around the enclosure normally.
