No, really.

I linked to the article on rd.net rather than its original source (quoted in that thread) for the added discussion since it might go somewhere.

"The staff at the Steamboat Veterinary Hospital said the Black Angus calf, which was delivered by Caesarean section, had two spines but one head. One leg also had two hooves."

"The calf lived for only about 10 minutes."

"Veterinarian Lee Meyring says the birth resulted from an incomplete splitting of the embryo into twins."

That is some nasty stuff...

My apologies, I had forgotten that the debunking creationism forum on rd.net was only for those who have registered.

Well worth registering though :D
