In March 2017, a viral video captured worldwide attention with a bizarre creature spotted in Santa Fe, Argentina. A woman named Lujan Eroles discovered what appeared to be a snake-like animal with “two heads, three eyes, and weird skin.” The footage quickly went viral, racking up over 19 million views due to the creature’s strange appearance and behavior.
The dark brown and white striped organism had a seemingly blinking eye and heads at both ends. When Eroles flipped it over using a stick, the mystery deepened—tiny legs were visible underneath, suggesting it wasn’t a snake at all. Intrigued and confused, she shared the video on Facebook, prompting a storm of speculation and over 180,000 shares.Social media users offered a range of humorous and curious guesses—some joking it might be a Pokémon, others suggesting it was a strange worm. The mystery continued to stir online fascination for weeks, until the creature was finally identified: a hawk moth caterpillar.
