Keep posting where you want to. I love seeing the "category police" get aggravated.

I think they are two unrelated tree's. That would make them Conjoined trees
From Wkipedia: "Two trees may grow to their mature size adjacent to each other and seemingly grow together or conjoin, demonstrating inosculation."
But if you really want to differentiate species, go ahead.

I was told by some park managers that the dominant tree (One on the left) will eventually kill the other tree.

Possibly...
Must be a very slow death.
Maybe the subordinate tree just gives up.
Wow, that's a cool picture. I never heard of inosculation, but Google knows everything.
"This phenomenon is known as inosculation, which occurs when two individual trees growing in close proximity become morphologically joined. It's important to note that inosculation is different from grafting in that it is a naturally occurring phenomenon"
