"The Dancing Calves" were owned by West and Gail Seegmiller who displayed them for many years at their Desert Pearl Cafe (no longer in existence), in Cedar City, Utah. Dr. A. C. Johnson, Dr. T. Donald Bell, William H. Lund, Dr. R. G. Williams, Dr. J. S. Prestwich, Dr. A. L. Graff, S. T. Nelson, and James Hoyle, Jr. all signed as witnesses that they saw the calf in the flesh soon after birth and knew it to be authentic. The calves and original document were donated to the Garth and Jerri Frehner Museum of Natural History on the Southern Utah University campus in Cedar City, Utah, where they are now on display. The Deformed Animals Museum of Llubí, Spain, preserves various two-headed specimens. A head mount of a two-headed calf is on display in the Museum at the Georgia State Capitol Building in Atlanta, Georgia.

Initial manifestations often include an abnormal segmental sweating response (described as hyperhidrosis or anhidrosis in some patients) and a tonic pupil. Other commonly reported symptoms included fatigue, chronic cough, and increased urinary frequency.Prognosis
Ross syndrome is a non life-threatening benign condition but delay in diagnosis can result in slow progression of autonomic symptoms. Epidemiology
