It is known that this two-eyed python has a strange syndrome, and it can occur in humans.
Recently, a python man in Mississippi named Jimerson was very surprised when he discovered that one of his young pythons had a strange mutation – gluing his eyes together.
It is known that when he broke the shell of the latest python egg, Jimerson was extremely surprised and scared when he saw the python inside the egg crawling out with the placenta wrapped around his neck.
More specifically, this python has an unusual appearance – they have 2 eyes together in the same eye socket, the nose is also “weird”.
Jimerson shared: “When I saw this individual, I was really scared. Why does it have such a strange appearance?”.
At first the python seemed very weak, could not raise his head, thought he would “die” but strangely he still survived.
However, Jimerson will take some pictures of this strange python and keep it frozen, not intending to raise it. Because Jimerson knows that this python, even if it survives, will not live long.
Jimerson intended to sell the unique specimen and received an offer to buy it back for $750.
Talking about the strange syndrome that this python has, experts say that this individual may have one eye syndrome (cyclopia) – in which the face of the embryo becomes too flattened during development.
In this case, the two eye sockets are fused together and the two eyes are located in the same place.
In other cases, the animal has only one large eye. It is known that other animals such as pigs, cattle, sharks, and even humans are at risk for this syndrome. Because cyclopia affects the brain, animals with the mutation rarely live long after birth.
