'Big Head' predicts Brazilian win
Remember Paul the Octopus? He predicted results for seven games of the 2010 World Cup and all of them were correct. This time we have ‘Cabecao’ meaning ‘Big Head’ in Portuguese, the loggerhead turtle who has predicted Brazil to beat Croatia in the World Cup opener.
The 25-year-old male turtle had to choose between eating a fish hung from a Brazilian flag, a Croatian flag and a football at the Praia do Forte turtle sanctuary north of Salvado, Brazil. After earlier going for the fish hung from a football in the middle indicating a draw, he chose the one representing Brazil.
Big Head’s just might receive the same hype as Paul’s if Brazil do manage to beat Croatia in the opening match.
The onlookers cheered the prediction.
