The deformed mountain lion. Photo by Idaho Fish and Game.
This peculiar animal was legally harvested in Preston, Idaho after someone observed it attacking a dog, according to Idaho Fish and Game.
The hunter was extremely confused when he approached the animal up close — it had a fully formed set of teeth and small whiskers growing out of its forehead. Apparently, this is evidence of either remnants of of a conjoined twin that that died while still in the womb, or a rare tumor.
