Residents of Bibiani Anhwiaso Bekwai in the Western North region are currently experiencing a mix of fear and unease following the birth of a lamb with two heads in their community, according to a report put together by MyJoyonline.
The strange incident took place on Wednesday, December 3, when a sheep gave birth to a lamb with two heads, two mouths, four eyes, and two ears.
Adwoa Abrafi, the owner of the sheep, expressed her shock and concern, as she has been raising sheep for more than ten years and has never encountered such a mysterious occurrence before.
Troubled by the situation, she sought the guidance of a spiritualist in the area to determine if this was a sign of something ominous.
In the meantime, Dr. Emmanuel Kingsley Bassaw, the municipal veterinary officer, shed some light on the possible causes behind this unusual event. He explained that the conjoined lamb could be a result of three factors: the sheep’s exposure to heavy metals like mercury and cyanide, inbreeding within the flock, and inadequate medical care.
The birth of this deformed lamb has left the community in a state of anxiety and apprehension. The residents are now grappling with the unsettling question of what this occurrence may signify for their future.
