however not in a specific species, polycephaly can be rarely seen in snakes. Snakes having multiple heads mostly 2 or 3 have

so finally you have seen some of the most interesting snakes found in water, deserts, forests etc. now, lemme clarify how an eastern long necked turtle looks like, and I'm still wondering if the last one with head and tail like a snake is a cross bred or just a photoshopped version. lemme know what you think about this.
