Piglet born with two mouths and three eyes

A Chinese farmer was shocked when one of his new piglets was born with three eyes and two mouths.

The piglet was among eight newborn piglets at Liu Dingsheng's farm in Chongren County, Zhejiang province.

"We were shocked to see such a weird looking creature," said Liu, "I don't really know what to do with it."



Liu said that the mother was a four-year-old sow which was completely healthy and normal.

A local vet said the abnormality may have been caused by genetic mutation or feed pollution.

As the world's fastest developing industrial nation, China suffers heavily from environmental pollution.
