Pike with two bodies?

Recently somebody in my area supposedly caught a mutant pike with two bodies and one head.

I myself think it's an optical illusion but the vast majority of people who have seen the picture think it's a mutant. What do you guy's think?

I don't see how a fish like that could live to the size it is. I really doubt it's real.

Look at the head its pure photoshop. No way would that fish have survived to get that size with a major defect like that.

The head of small pike is hiding under the gill cover of big pike.

See that's what I see, but no one around here seems to want to believe it.

At first glance, one could believe it's true. But with a closer inspection, I'd have to agree it's a smaller pike just stuffed in the gill of a big one. I also thought about the probability of a fish with this mutation surviving. And I've never once in my life hard or read of a mutations of two bodies and one head. Two heads one body...yes. two heads, two bodies conjoined... yes. But one head? Cool picture tho

Could this mutation happen, yes without a doubt. Could that same fish survive to that size in the wild, no. It cannot swim as fast to avoid predators at a young and small age. And it could not swim fast enough in all the opportunities needed to eat enough to grow. Kept in an aquarium and fed, yes. Wild, no.

Also looks photoshopped as mentioned above.

Looks like the smaller one is shoved inside the big one and also a little touched up in photoshop
