Fisherman in Mexico on Monday captured video of conjoined gray whale twins that washed up on a beach in Baja California.
The whales were found alive for a short time in a lagoon, but lived only a few hours, the Associated Press reports citing a marine biologist. The whales were linked at the waist, with two full heads and tail fins, the report said.
The discovery is likely the first documented case of conjoined whale twins ever.
