The phenomenon of “one-eyed giant” in animals

The phenomenon of one-eyed mutation in animals has been identified as a consequence of toxic substances as well as current environmental pollution.An animal born with only one eye is a genetic mutation that can cause death before or shortly after birth. Mono-orbital mutations occur mainly in mammals, which includes humans.

According to scientific explanation, this deformity is caused by failure in the formation of the forebrain and nasal cavity. However, its root cause is still conjectured to be due to the harmful effects of toxins as well as increasing environmental pollution on Earth.

From the one-eyed aquatic animal…This shark fetus was discovered by a fisherman on the coast of Cortez, California, USA in July 2011.

 

One-eyed gray shark fetus.

Due to the monstrous mutation, it seems that this fetus was unable to survive after birth.

At first glance, this 56cm long gray shark fetus is difficult to convince many people because the only eye located in front of the head looks like a product of photoshop. They say that these eyes look more like a cartoon character than a shark.

However, after verification, scientists have confirmed that this is a real mutant shark fetus.

Livestock livestockProbably the most recorded cattle mutations have to be in goats. Only briefly, the world has announced at least 4 cases of one-eyed goat from 1997 to present.

The one-eyed goats are all described as having a face like… a monkey. Opening is the discovery of the skull of a one-eyed goat found in the state of Texas, USA. This was followed by the birth of a white goat in Durban, South America. In 2010, the city of Clinton, South California welcomed the birth of the next one-eyed goat.

Particularly in sheep, science has proven that monocular mutations often occur when the mother eats foul cabbage containing Cyclopamine. The phenomenon of one-eyed mutation in sheep has been recorded for several centuries. Since the 17th century, the birth of the “one-eyed monster” has shocked science. Then in 1920, 1964, 2005 and 2006, the world continued to welcome new members of the “one-eyed giants” club.

To other animalsIn addition to the outstanding mutation cases that interested the whole world, there have also been many cases of one-eyed mutations that medicine still call the mono-orbital monster.

 

The famous one-eyed cat in 2005.

In 2005, the ill-fated kitten died shortly after being born. In most studies, these mutations usually do not persist after birth.

In addition, the case of turtles, dogs, mice, chickens, deer or pigs are also on the list of at risk. The most notable is the case of a baby girl weighing 2.8 kg born on August 13, 1982 and another case recorded in 1974.

However, the human mutagenic agent was discovered. The diagnosis is genetic, not toxic or environmental, as in animals.
