The effects of the Fukushima reactor disaster are still going on today, despite the passage of more than 10 years.
According to the British newspaper, “Daily Star”, a pet store owner in Japan found a number of animals, including turtles and two-headed snakes, while searching for creatures infected with nuclear radiation as a result of the disaster.

Hajime Hinohara said he had been researching genetic aberrations since he launched a band in that area called The Two Heads.
The newspaper pointed out that “Hinohara owns a two-headed snake that died a while ago, in addition to a turtle in one body with two heads, each worth a lot of money.”
Hinohara explained, “He faces a problem with these creatures, because they have two brains,” adding, “For example, the left brain may want to go in one direction while the right one wants to go in another.”
He pointed out that “the two turtles were found about 3 years ago, with the issuance of a law to protect such animals,” noting that they “eat a lot of food.”
“The right head moves the right side and the left head moves the left side in different directions, so keep them in a shallow bowl of water so that they do not sink,” Hinohara added.
A devastating earthquake and tsunami in 2011 destroyed the Fukushima nuclear plant, spreading radiation widely in the environment and surrounding organisms.
