BALLARD COUNTY, Ky. (LEX 18)- Fish and Wildlife officials say that a Marshall County hunter got two for the price of one when he shot a “two-headed” deer earlier this week.

Hunter Bob Long took aim at a buck during the opening of shooting season. When he went to recover the deer, he found that the deer had a second head.

It’s not what you think.

The buck had another buck’s head tangled in his antlers. It’s unclear exactly what circumstances led up to this buck’s carrying around another set of antlers and part of a decomposing carcass.
