Guinness World Records and Ripley’s Believe It or Not arrived at Davidson on March 25 to certify the birth of a three-headed calf. The three-headed red Angus Cross calf was born at 2 a.m. at Gordon Willner’s farm west of Davidson, weighing in at 113 pounds. The cow was noticed because it was about to give birth. As the due date neared, it became apparent that the birth would not go as expected. Willner panicked, slipped his arm into the cow, and felt one of its heads. then two heads He asked for help thinking they were twins.
A 3-headed calf was born in Saskatchewan.
Dr. Olaf Lipro, a large animal veterinarian at the University of Saskatchewan, responded to the need for help. He arrived at the residence and interrogated. It was found that two chiefs were also present. After the delivery did not progress, he decided to proceed to the section. This was Lipro’s first time using Cs on a cow. He says he performed it once about 3 weeks ago with a pug who was unable to give birth to her pug/rottweiler. “It’s all going well,” said Lipro, “so I thought pulling these twins out of Gord’s cows would be a breeze.”
Dr. Olaf Lipro, a large animal veterinarian at the University of Saskatchewan, responded to the need for help. He arrived at the residence and interrogated. It was found that two chiefs were also present. After the birth did not progress, an emergency caesarean was decided. Lipro is now performing an emergency caesarean section on a cow for the first time. He says he performed once about three weeks ago with a pug who couldn’t give birth to her pug/rottweiler. “It’s all going well,” said Lipro, “so I thought pulling these twins out of Gord’s cows would be a breeze.”
“I passed out completely,” Lipro explained further. He had seen a two-headed calf before. But he had never seen a three-headed calf before, he said. His first instinct, he said, was to take out an iPhone and post it on social media. Then he remembered that he had to go back to work. He checked the airways of the three calves to make sure they could breathe. One head, centered, appeared to be painful. According to Lipro, he had to remove the amniotic fluid from the animal’s nose. Others use tubes, but Lipro claims to have discovered a new method. He claims to suck the pesky fluid out of his nostrils with a tube from Tim Hortons Iced Capp.
He said other cattle farmers might want to use the same method in their calf-raising operations. He suggests that simply squeezing out a tube of Twisted Sisters milkshake might be enough. Farmers should be wary of relying on this as Twisted Sisters remains closed for the season. when he let the calf breathe He turned his attention to the cow. After washing her wound He wounded Since the calf was lying on the floor and having difficulty picking up the bottle, Lipro immediately placed the colostrum on the left head. “Then I knew there wouldn’t be another chance. So I punched my right head too. to see if I can do it.”
After 48 hours, the calf can start suckling on its own. But it needs to be bottle-fed for the first 48 hours as it tries to stand. It was still standing on the third day. Nursing becomes a challenge as the three heads collide as they try to breastfeed. According to Lipro, the calf’s view is bleak. The three-headed calf hardly lived more than a few days. But the two-headed calf hardly lived more than a few days. “Only time will tell,” Lipro said. Although one was born in Illinois in 1893, this may have been the world’s first three-headed calf.
The following entry appeared in the Mattoon Gazette on January 13, 1893, from Mattoon, Coles County, Illinois: “As we were typing, a farmer in Lafayette reported that a three-headed calf was born in southeastern neighborhoods and slightly north of Monroe School Building.” He asked that his identity be concealed so that those guilty could be brought to justice”…whatever that involved.
Guinness World Records and Ripley’s flew over Davidson when Lipro posted the photo on Instagram. According to Lipro, he apologized for drawing so much attention to Willner’s property. I” “As soon as I noticed that it was a calf in three parts I began to think about how I could use it as a thesis topic for my PhD under Dr. Newt Scamander at the College of Large and Unusual Animals at Veterinary Medicine,” the authors said.
