First I thought it was just odd and was perhaps a foot of something it ate that broke through the snake - notice the body lump.
However seeing that they took it to a science center for autopsy and more studies changes all that.
I too would also see it as evolution, though others would just call it a mutation. No matter how you slice it though it basically proves evolution.
I did like this part of the story.
"A more common mutation among snakes is the growth of a second head, which occurs in a similar way to the formation of Siamese twins in humans.
Such animals are often caught and preserved as lucky tokens but have very little chance of surviving in the wild anyway, especially as the heads have a tendency to attack each other."
The last line made me lol.
