China: Pet Owner Reveals Unusual Two-Headed Bearded Dragon

This is the rare moment that a Chinese man presented an unusual two-headed bearded dragon, drawing attention as the reptile calmly moved with both heads sharing a single body. On December 8, 2025, in Hubei, China, the video captured a pet owner gently holding out his finger while the small reptile slowly crawled forward. The bearded dragon appeared to have two fully formed heads connected to one body, each head moving slightly independently as it balanced itself. The man kept his hand steady, allowing the creature to explore without disturbance. The reptile’s tiny claws gripped his finger as both heads looked around, creating a striking and rare visual. The video ended with the two-headed bearded dragon continuing to crawl calmly along the man’s finger as he observed it closely.

(231117) -- BEIJING, Nov. 17, 2023 (Xinhua) -- Chen Songzhan, the corresponding author of the study and a researcher at the Institute of High Energy Physics (IHEP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, introduces research findings at the IHEP of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing, capital of China, on Nov. 14, 2023. China's Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO), a high-altitude cosmic ray observatory, has released the precise energy spectrum for the highest-energy gamma-ray radiation from the brightest gamma-ray burst (GRB) observed to date. The study, conducted by the LHAASO collaboration team, was led by the Institute of High Energy Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the findings were published recently in the journal Science Advances.

Repair on damaged neutrino detector to be completed in mid-April

GIFU, Japan - A large neutrino detector operated by the University of Tokyo's Institute for Cosmic Ray Research was shown off to media organizations on April 7 before the completion of its repair work in mid-April following severe damage sustained in an accident in November 2001. The institute will partially resume experiments with the ''Super-Kamiokande'' detector immediately after the completion of the reconstruction work before its full resumption in around late June, the institute said.

Damaged neutrino detector 'Super Kamiokande' restored

GIFU, Japan - A large neutrino detector operated by the University of Tokyo's Institute for Cosmic Ray Research (ICRR) in Gifu Prefecture is shown off to the media Sept. 24 after it was repaired following severe damage sustained in an accident in November 2001. About 7,000 or 60% of the 11,000 photomultiplier tubes (PMTs) attached to the neutrino detector in the town of Kamioka in the central Japanese prefecture were found broken last Nov. 12 due to a chain reaction, but it is now repaired to a level that experiments can resume, ICRR officials said.
