China: Pair of Two-Headed Turtles Face Each Other Through Glass

On April 23, 2026, in Guangdong, located in southern China, a video recorded a rare scene involving two two-headed turtles. The owner held a small purple two-headed turtle in hand and brought it close to the glass enclosure of a much larger one. Inside the glass, the bigger two-headed turtle was also purple and stared directly at the smaller turtle. The size difference between them created a strong visual contrast. The larger turtle remained still while watching the small one, making the meeting look unusually intense. The small turtle stayed in the owner’s hand as the two faced each other across the glass. Chinese viewers commented that it is not easy for a two-headed turtle to grow so large. Many described it as rare and said it should be carefully raised.

On January 21, 2026, in Anhui, eastern China, a video showed a white box with two round holes and a curved opening below, forming the shape of a strange smiling face.
