This picture of a two faced bullock from a cattle sale in northern Queensland has gone viral after it was shared on Facebook.

The manager of Mareeba Saleyards in Queensland posted the pictures on their Facebook page two days ago and it has already been shared nearly 2000 times and had nearly 1000 comments.

The bullock was described as "interesting" with the second face having an eye, one tooth and working nostrils, and being in great condition.

News Corp reports that the four-year-old Droughtmaster bullock was born with a rare deformity which gave him an extra eye and nose in the middle of his face.


The manager said: "He wouldn’t get to 635kg if he wasn’t happy.”

Social media users have reacted positively and negatively to the post in the hundreds of comments on the account.

The bullock is reportedly being checked over by a vet to find out the deformity occurred.
