The 15 Neatest Facts You Can Put Inside Your Brain Right Now
On an island off the coast of Norway is a creature that lives in the forests there, in a small cave. This strange animal has two heads but only one body; it hunts for fish and meat with its two arms while its single head is out in front trying to frighten away any potential threat. The animal does this by making weird, loud noises, much like someone trying to imitate the sound of an angry elephant or a giant monster.
The story of this unnamed beast is found in a collection of Norwegian folktales collected by a priest named Thorbjorn Munthe, who was sent by King Haakon IV to gather stories about the land he would inherit if he married Crown Princess Margaret.
