OMG: Woman Delivers Mermaid-Like Baby

A mermaid-like baby has been delivered at the Suntreso Government Hospital in Kumasi, Starrfmonline.com has reported.
The child with a rare defect has only one leg joining the torso from the waist down to the two feet – also conjoined at the heels to look like a caudal fin.
The baby has no genitals.
Meanwhile, reports indicate it seems healthy at birth.
Officials at the hospital have refused to comment officially on the issue.
On October 11, 2011, Graphiconline reported on a similar incident of a baby born at the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital (KATH) also in Kumasi with features like an aquatic creature.
Doctors at the hospital then described it as a congenital deformity.
Nurses at the hospital told Graphiconline's Enoch Darfah Frimpong that the parents of the baby abandoned it soon after it was born and said they didn't want to have anything to do with it.
The legs of that baby was joined in the shape of the caudal (tail) peduncle of a fish. The head appeared like that of a fish, with mouth, lower and upper jaws, nostrils and eyes all popping out in the shape of the aquatic creature.
That baby which was born with the congenital deformity died weeks later.
