Fish

Split Tail

A number of fish have been bred to have a tail that is split to give the appearance of two tails. For example, the double tail Betta.

Two Tails

Others such as the double tail goldfish have two complete tails, side by side. One of the most popular double tail types is the Fantail goldfish (pictured).

Lizards

Because many species of lizard can regrow their tails, under some circumstance they may grow two tails from the stub of a amputation.

Interesting info here. Some interesting photo's as well. That unknown creature looks like a scorpion with two tails. I used to live in Hawaii and we had geckos all over the place. I think I would have freaked out if I ever saw one with two tails.

Great hub & good info! Thanks for sharing with us.
