Moo Deng, The Toodler Hippopotamus, still has the power of the stars

Moo Deng does not bounce as it did two months ago.

But it is still similar to the mature avocado that has been skipped with Pâté. She keeps wet and wet. It is cheating. She yawns. It is a nap. Sometimes her mother’s back wins, then retreat in the spring.

Mostly, Moo Deng ignores hundreds of thousands of pilgrims who collected an external animal garden for one reason: for it. It is, somewhat imperceptible, the most famous creature in Thailand in Forever, human or Pachyderm. However, if you are not in the swimming pool, her eyes and removal overlooking water, Moo Deng spends a lot of time in the nap in a isolated corner of her box, and extends like abandoned sausage.

It is a 6 -month -old river horse, this life is very famous. Visitors are often respected, but there are exceptions, foreign and Thai. There were incidents of bananas, ejaculation and bribe water. Daily inconvenience is screams, pleasures, and the “moo deng, moo Deng” choir in every dust shake from its tail, every fluctuation from its wild cans. People have passed away in its presence, although the sticky heat in Thailand can also be a factor.

Last week, Hunter Hackett, a digital Bedouin from California, joined the MO Deng reception with his wife, Anisi Pygod, a photographer for children.

“I used to ridicule these trends, but now I want to be in the next big thing,” said Mr. Hackett. “He reminds me that I am young and innocent and to be excited, like Pokemon.”

Moo Deng in Thai means pork pork, A kind of super -meat ball ball. (Moo “means” pig “or” pork “in Thailand. A song was written in her honor. It is called “MOODENG, Mooding”, and features a choir that goes: “Moo Deng, Moo Deng, DENG DENG DENG DENG.”

Narongwit Chodchoy, director of the open KHAO KHEOW Zoo, selected the Star Star in the park. He arranged support deals from an online market and a telecommunications company. Wire sculptures from the river mares decorates the entrance to the zoo. There is Moo Deng Ice Cream and Moo Deng Moo Deng in the canteen.

Mr. Narongwit said he knows why Moo Deng has become a great success in Thailand. The country was imprisoned in political drama for two decades. Busty a month after the arrival of Mu Deng on July 10, a Thai court I toppled another prime minister.

“When Mo Deng was born, people in Thailand were tired of politics, tired of the news, tired of society,” said Mr. Naronghouette. “It was a breath of fresh air.”

Japanese executives living near the zoo sent home clips from Moo Deng being Moo Deng, meaning that it is adorable. Very soon, Moo Deng was all over Tiktok. “Saturday Night Live” appeared. In September, during the US presidential campaign, former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris were crushed in an online electoral survey tonight. Google clarified it with innovative logo graphics, in accordance with one of the most searched conditions for 2024.

In the past three months of 2024, the Khao Kheow Open Imploy Zoo has doubled the number of visitors for approximately 600,000 people. Love Octopus urineWho expected the winners of football matches, Moo Deng offered two fruits and vegetables decorated with the names of Mr. Trump and Mrs. Harris. Mr. Trump chose.

Mr. Narongwit said he personally preferred Mr. Trump because of the newly opened commercial acumen. But he denied any reform of the fruit baskets. It is more famous about the recently born river mares, such as poppy in Virginia and Hagis, Scotland.

The only person who was not upset with Moo Deng’s Rock Star is her guard, Atthapon Nunde. It was the one who posted Moo Deng videos on Tiktok accounts and Facebook, as well as on the social media accounts of the zoo. He said he was intended to build online existence. Indeed, her older brother, Moo Toon, showed glimpses of praise online, as in a picture of him wandering in the leg of Mr. Atthapon. A herd of Capibaras under the auspices of Mr. Atabon gained the following as well. Before that, Zokeeper appeared for the first time in a seasoned lazy, called Mr. Flash, who occupied the slow -Thai strange strange during the Korona virus.

“Mr. Atabon admitted that he did not do much.” He is laziness. “

By the time the Jona and Tony Moo Deng, which is a 11 -script point, produced a single Coca -Cola bottle, Mr. Atthapon said he knows exactly what kind of hippopotamus that the world misses. He now has two million followers on Tiktok and 400,000 on Facebook.

For himself, he does not watch videos for relaxation, as Mr. Atthapon said.

He said, “I am very busy sponsoring animals.”

Mr. Atthapon, known as the title of Benz, as in Mercedes, has not dreamed of becoming an animal. He took care of the small dogs – the Bomeris, Shih Tusus, Chihuahua, the stranger – when he was a boy, but he drove trucks for a livelihood. Eight years ago, he applied for a job in the zoo because his mother was a box on a golf court near. Instead of driving dining trucks for animals, Mr. Atthapon was told to tend five types of animals, including two types of river mares: Pygmy and Common.

He said, “It is much larger than Chihuahayaws,” even a variety of dwarfs, which can weigh about 500 pounds.

Last year, Mr. Atthapon won the title of one of the most qualified Bachelor’s degrees in Thailand by a local media group, but Word was exposed to a friend.

Hippopotamus Pygmy, or Choeropsis LibeRiensis, is at risk, leaving about 2500 in the wild in the original West Africa. The residents of the captive education are small. The poppy, the newborn, Virgin, is the cousin of Mu Deng. Mu Ding’s sister’s sister on the side of her father is also the granddaughter of her mother.

Last week, and He headed the sister of the Thai king I described as a wedding between Moo Manao, Lime Pork, Moo toon, Moo Deng’s brother. Buddhism, the blessed monks, the couple. They are expected to mate in mid -February, which are rituals that tend to occur under the water. For a country that has long linked himself to the elephant – which adorned the flag of Thailand when it was known as Siam – there is a new Pachyderm in the city.

Animal rights groups have condemned some captive education programs as good for zoos, but not for the future of endangered species. The Khao Kheow Open, despite its sprawling territory, is characterized by some dilapidated exhibits. Penguins are installed, and acquired chins. A herd of the original, indigenous yellow vaccines, chasing the foundations.

Most new visitors do not remain with other animals. Moo Deng is what attracted it here, to a zoo more than two hours than Bangkok.

Dasha Scsherbina, a manicurealist who was on a four -day Thai vacation from Chelyabinsk, Russia, admitted that she had never heard of Moo Deng before her Thai guide referred to a pilgrimage to the zoo. But she said, I now understood the noise.

Under it, in a shaded angle, moo Deng dozed. Not an ounce of wavy fat. It was enlarged for today.

Another Thai woman noticed that Mu Deng was active like a pile of buffalo tube. In the crowd, people spoke in English, Russian, Mandarin, Vietnamese, Japanese and Thai, all of whom are united, for a few minutes, through the magic of the sleeping river horse.
