Moo Deng, a viral pygmy hippo in Thailand, 'predicted' the winner of the 2024 US presidential election by choosing a watermelon labeled with Donald Trump's name over one labeled with Kamala Harris's name. This 'prediction' comes as national polls show a tight race between the two candidates.
FollowMoo Deng, Thailand's viral hippo, "predicted" that Republican candidate Donald Trump will win the 2024 US presidential election, defeating his Democratic rival Kamala Harris. When presented with an option between two fruit cakes at Thailand's Khao Kheow Open Zoo, the pygmy hippo stated her election prediction for November 5, according to a video cited by The Independent.
According to reports, a video of the 'prediction' was captured on Monday. In it, zookeepers presented Moo Deng with two watermelons, one engraved with Kamala Harris's name and the other with Donald Trump's name spelled locally.
While the bigger hippo in the enclosure gorged itself on the Harris watermelon, the video showed Moo Deng choose to consume the Trump-labeled watermelon. The hippo's forecast was made as national polling indicates that the two contenders are tied for the crucial 2024 election.
