Trout with two mouths

Kids, you have been reading news about mutant calf born with two heads, or two limbs but today it is about a fish reeled in with a unique feature — two mouths.

Debbie Geddes was fishing in upstate New York on Lake Champlain with her husband when she reeled in the two-mouthed fish. Photos of the unusual trout went viral after a friend, Adam Facteau, posted them to Facebook.

Theories from people who viewed the photos include a genetic mutation and an injury from a swallowed hook.

But the good thing is that Geddes didn’t kept the fish for her next meal instead released the fish back into the water after taking the photos so that it may live its life.
