Washington: Voting for the US presidential election is being held today. There is a close contest between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris. However, in the meantime, the pygmy hippo Mu Deng in a zoo in Thailand is once again in the news.

Let us tell you that Mu Deng has predicted that Donald Trump will win the 2024 US presidential election. Actually, Mu Deng broke a watermelon on which the name of Republican candidate Donald Trump was written in the local language.

An experiment was conducted on Monday at the Khao Khevo Open Zoo in Chonburi, eastern Thailand, and Mu Deng was called out of the water for this test. Two watermelons were kept in this experiment. Kamala Harris's name was written on one watermelon and Donald Trump's name was written on the other watermelon. Out of these, Mu Deng chose the watermelon with Donald Trump written on it. At the same time, the other hippo with Mu Deng chose Kamala Harris.

Moo Deng is viral on social media

Since her birth in July, Mu Deng has been a viral sensation both online and offline. She has single-handedly increased the number of people visiting the zoo, but officials have limited her public time because visitors were bothering her. Now, Mu Deng only appears for five minutes on weekends.

Mu Deng became an online sensation when her video was shared on a TikTok page. Her name, which means "jumping pig", was chosen through an online vote by over 20,000 visitors.

The squirrel chose Kamala Harris

MAGA supporters rejoiced after Moo Deng chose Trump. Predicting election results by animals is a famous trend and this time the trend has already started. A dog named Joey chose Donald Trump as the president while a squirrel named Gnocchi Jr. predicted that Kamala Harris would be the winner.

"Nature is taking revenge on peanuts," one social media user commented on Mu Deng's choice of Donald Trump.

At the same time, another user wrote, the animals are in favor of Trump. They know the Democrats are bad. A social media user called Mu Deng "the most accurate pollster of 2024."
