Most people think of this as wired but it's really not. We have twins that are connected by a body part. So it's not that unnormal to see animals having the same problem. I think it's cool to find two headed sharks. A fisherman found a two headed blue shark embryo in the Indian ocean in 2008. Some people wouldn't know what to do with it. They would think it was crazy. Some might pass out. It's not really known that animals can have babies that are stuck together. If i found one i would take it somewhere that some one could help it. Most people wouldn't do the right thing witch would be to take it somewhere that it can be checked out to make sure its ok. Then the people you take it to will take it back to were you got it from. Most of the sharks that are conjoined twins were found in the Gulf of California and northwestern Mexico.
What would you do if you found a shark that had a conjoined twin?
Would you leave it there to die or help it?
Where would you take it if you found it?

You were already forum post leader this quarter.
If I found a shark that had a conjoined twin, I would be very surprised and I would try to call a vet or a ocean animal company to try and see what they could do about it. I would try to help it the best to my abilities, but I would also make sure that it wouldn't attack me. I would leave it there until a marine company could come and pick the shark up.
I would be freaked out and not expecting it so i'd probably like scream and run the other way. I would definitely leave it there but call an animal marine place thing and tell them about it so they can hopefully do something.
I don't know what I would do if I found a two headed shark. I know it isn't rare but ( also don't think it is very common. I definitely wouldn't leave it to die. But i wouldn't do that to anything. Since I don't know really anything about this is, i would probably try and find someone who has a clue.
I would be quite scared and freak out, but then I would realize not everything sees something like this and I would feel bad for it. I would help it and want to save it. I would try to bring it somewhere safe while still keeping it safe and get ahold of something that can do better for it than I could.
If I had found a shark that had been connected with a twin i probably on the spot wouldn't know what to do? Would it be best to leave it or take it somewhere? In the end I would probably try to help the creature. Wouldn't leave it to die for sure. Due to a lack of knowledge on such occasions myself I would probably try to find the closest vet hospital to take it to and leave it up to them to help it survive.
I would freak out at first but then i would want to help the poor thing so,I would take it somewhere so people could look at it. I would help it by bring it to a vet or something. A vet.
I would try to take a picture of it so that people believed me when i told them about it. I would definitely leave, you never know if the animal is just trying to be defensive and protect its territory or not. It would probably freak me out that it has two heads and make me want to leave it even faster. If i could transport it safely i would take it to an aquarium or zoo depending on where i am.
1. I would swim away because sharks are dangerous but I would also let people know about this or if I had my phone or a waterproof camera I would have gotten a picture.
2. From the story above it doesn't say anything about it being in danger so I would leave it there.
3. I would leave it in the ocean/sea because it probably has a family and me taking it could cause it to die.
That's a new one. No one has said that yet in any of the reply's. Yes that is what I said and thanks for understanding my point in the story. Yeah it would be a shock for most people. Some may walk by and not see it. Some said they would let it die i don't think that's really fare if there's something that can be done. Do you think that's fare to the animal? Yes that is what should be done. Most people would just leave it and let it die. Some said they would let it be a project to be killed and then there's no chance to see if it will live like the rest of animals.
