The venomous snake was named 'Double Dave' because of its two heads and the two Daves who found it.
Two New Jersey herpetologists exploring an area known for its timber rattlesnakes stumbled across a rare find: a newborn two-headed rattlesnake slithering across the ground.
Schneider and his colleague, Dave Burkett, found the snake about two weeks ago in the Pine Barrens, a heavily forested area in the southern part of the state, after they were told that a female timber rattlesnake had recently given birth. The venomous snake — named"Double Dave" because of its two heads and the two Daves who found it — was taken to the Herpetological Associates in Pemberton where it will be monitored.
Because timber rattlesnakes are an endangered species, Herpetological Associates had to get permission from the state to keep it.
