This Dec. 30, 2015, photo released by the Idaho Department of Fish and Game (IDFG), shows a deformed mountain lion with teeth growing out of its forehead. Biologists are trying to determine what caused the strange growth on the animal, which was legally killed by a hunter in southeast Idaho near the Utah border.

The story sounds legit, but look at the lower jaw. Doesn't look like one there does it? It looks like someone was having fun, skinned out the lower jaw, slit the forehead, and stuck the lower jaw in the slit. I don't suppose that's right, but I don't see teeth in the lower jaw, nor does the lower jaw look rigid.

I was going to say it was his wife's teeth, but they would be firmly planted in his behind.

Ya I don't see teeth on the lower jaw in the mouth. I would say someone was screwing around.

It's not a question if its real or fake its only a question of why did it happen. You can see the front left lower canine tooth just behind the upper one.

I wonder if all the other mountain lions wouldn't let him play any mountain lion games

Blinky, the three-eyed wonder fish. Nobody else watched The Simpsons?

I think, and I'm no biologist, that that extra set of chompers resembles upper canine teeth, not the supposedly missing lowers. Anyhow, no petting that kitty. NICE kitty. Yes you ARE...

I used to show the video, "I am not a Freak" prior to starting our genetics unit when I taught HS Biology. Look it up on You Tube and go to 21:35 and watch the chinese man with two heads, very similar to what this lion looks to have! If you have the time there is some interesting "stuff" in that video.

Or just watch it here, didn't realize that would happen?
