2024 US election: A baby pygmy hippopotamus named Moo Deng from Thailand has taken on the role of a "prophet" ahead of the 2024 US presidential election. In a tight race between Republican Donald Trump and Democrat Kamala Harris, the internet-famous hippo made her prediction by picking Trump as the winner.

In a viral video filmed at Khao Kheow Open Zoo in Si Racha, Thailand, Moo Deng is enticed out of the water with food. Presented with two watermelons bearing the candidates' names, she immediately goes for the watermelon marked for Trump, happily devouring it. This playful yet symbolic act has taken the internet by storm, with many noting that Moo Deng’s pick aligns with various polls and betting predictions. According to AtlasIntel's latest survey, Donald Trump leads Kamala Harris, with 49% of respondents favouring him, holding a narrow 1.8% lead in crucial swing states.


Renowned economist Christophe Barraud, often called the “world's most accurate economist,” has also forecasted a victory for Trump.

Meet Moo Deng, Political Analyst Hippo

Born in July 2024, Moo Deng has become a viral sensation thanks to her playful antics shared on platforms like TikTok and Instagram. One of her recent videos, featuring her doing a “moonwalk” reminiscent of Michael Jackson, captured the hearts of viewers worldwide. The public chose her name, “Moo Deng,” which translates to “bouncy pork” in Thai, through a poll. Her rising fame has brought awareness to the endangered pygmy hippo species and led to a fourfold increase in the zoo’s revenue in September.
