Animal Oddity - Photo of Two-nose Calf

A cow in Wisconsin was born with two noses. Owner Mark Krombholz didn't notice until he fed her a bottle of milk. "It's a functioning nose because the middle of her second nose, the flap would go in and out when she drank out of the bottle like that," said Krombholz. "It was kind of funny. It caught my eye right away, so I kind of laughed at that." Lucy, born May 4, 2007, will be a pet and breed if she's able, according to Krombholz. (ABC News)

Animal Oddity - Photo of Giant Hogzilla

In this photo released by Melynne Stone, Jamison Stone, 11, poses with a wild pig he killed near Delta, Ala., May 3, 2007. Stone's father said the hog weighed a staggering 1,051 pounds and measured 9 feet 4 inches from the tip of its snout to the base of its tail. If claims of the animal's size are true, it would be larger than Hogzilla, the huge hog killed in Georgia in 2004.

Animal Oddity - Photo of Two-toned Lobster

A rare two-toned lobster is seen in July 2006, in Bar Harbor, Maine. The lobster was caught by Alan Robinson in Dyer's Bay and is a typical mottled green on one side; the other side is a shade of orange that looks cooked. Robinson donated the lobster to the Mount Desert Oceanarium. Staff members say the odds of finding a half-and-half lobster are 1 in 50 million to 100 million.
