Aug. 22 (UPI) -- A woman fishing in upstate New York snapped photos when she reeled in a trout with a unique feature -- two mouths.

Debbie Geddes said she was fishing on Lake Champlain with her husband when she reeled in the two-mouthed fish.

Photos of the unusual trout went viral after a friend, Adam Facteau, posted them to Facebook.

"I've had messages from all over the world, like people asking about this fish and it seems like everybody's got an opinion on what is the cause of this fish having two mouths," Facteau told WPTZ-TV.

Theories from people who viewed the photos include a genetic mutation and an injury from a swallowed hook.

Geddes said she released the fish back into the water after taking the photos.

That’s nothing. We have politicians with two faces all over the place.

Why NO video?? Especially in today’s day and age! And I’ve only seen this one picture.
Don’t you think you take a video of that, or more than one pic???
Suspicious, sorry

I caught thousands of salmon during my commercial fishing days and never saw anything like that. Maybe a deformed egg that developed and survived somehow.

We now have to shut down Lake Champlain to tourists to protect the Two-mouthed Trout.
