A cow in Wisconsin was born with two noses. Owner Mark Krombholz didn't notice until he fed her a bottle of milk. "It's a functioning nose because the middle of her second nose, the flap would go in and out when she drank out of the bottle like that," said Krombholz. "It was kind of funny. It caught my eye right away, so I kind of laughed at that." Lucy, born May 4, 2007, will be a pet and breed if she's able, according to Krombholz. (ABC News)

Stone's father said the hog weighed a staggering 1,051 pounds and measured 9 feet 4 inches from the tip of its snout to the base of its tail.
