What is Conjoined Twins in Fruit-eating Bat about?

This article reports a rare case of dicephalic parapagus conjoined twins in a fruit-eating bat of the genus Artibeus, characterized by two separate heads and necks but a conjoined trunk. The twins exhibit two complete forelimbs and hindlimbs, with X-ray and ultrasound imaging revealing two separate hearts and a rudimentary medial forelimb structure. This study contributes to the limited knowledge of conjoined twinning in wild mammals, particularly within the Chiroptera order.
