Moo Deng had predicted that Trump would be victorious in the elections held on November 5, 2024
Moo Deng, the popular pygmy hippo from Thailand, caused a stir on social media on November 4, 2024, just a day before the U.S. presidential elections, after she predicted that Trump would be victorious. The Khao Kheow Open Zoo shared the video which showed Moo Deng picking a fruit and veggie cake of her choice out of two cakes kept side by side.
One cake had Trump’s name, while the other had Harris’. However, Moo Deng was prompt enough and quickly picked the fruit-and-veggie cake labeled for Trump over one for Vice President Kamala Harris in a viral video. On the other hand, her mother chose Harris' cake.
As soon as the video went viral, several comments started pouring in, as many slammed and criticised the hippo, while others came in her defense and stated that she was just a small animal, and the pick could have been just a coincidence.
On the other hand, as soon as the song made its way to YouTube, it garnered close to 75,000 views in just 2 days of posting it. With many left excited with lyrics like “Please Mommy, Come play with me, Are you ready? Hip Hip hooray,” Moo Deng continues to captivate audiences with its catchy lyrics, making it an instant hit among listeners.
