Separating Siamese twins is a tricky procedure, but it becomes even tougher when said twins are a pair of venom-fanged rattlesnakes.
Veterinarians working at the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum saved the life of a diamondback rattlesnake, after successfully separating it from a lame twin who had been joined to its neck.
"We have every reason to believe that it wasn't the surgery that caused one of them to die," Craig Ivanyi, the museum’s associate executive director for living collections, told AOL News. "The one who died was the weaker of the two. He was being dragged around by his twin, and it was harder for him to recuperate." |
