If you would like to verify this information, it's not difficult to find breeders who actually have these creatures available.http://www.turtlesale.com/home/index.php?page=rare-turtles-for-adoption-page-4 So if your interest is more than casual, you can actually have a two-headed turtle for your very own!

A two-headed turtle may be a bit more demanding as far as its health and well-being are concerned. But with proper care, it should be just as enjoyable as its single-headed counterpart.

The store owner said that the turtle is not for sale, but will remain on display at the store for customers to observe.Metro.co.uk: Turtle power boosted by second head (September 27, 2007)

The same collector, an unnamed man from Florida, reportedly sold another conjoined-twin turtle to a different Big Al's store in the late 1980s.MSNBC: Two-headed turtle goes on display (September 28, 2007)

The turtle has one head at either end of its body and two pairs of front legs, but only one set of back legs and one tail. It likely would not have survived long in the wild, since it walks and swims awkwardly, which would make it an easy target for predators.
