She’s certainly no stranger to the limelight, and her latest “political prediction” has added even more flair to her fame.

For her latest trick, Moo Deng was presented with a choice between two dishes of carved fruit, each marked with a candidate’s name: one for Donald Trump and the other for Kamala Harris.

In a moment that quickly went viral, the internet’s favorite hippo chose Trump’s dish. With the video spreading fast, her prediction added an unexpected twist to election talk, sparking conversation far beyond the zoo walls.

While the baby hippo’s forecast should probably be taken with a grain of salt—after all, hippo clairvoyance isn’t exactly a science—her choice aligns with a growing hope among some Americans for Trump’s comeback.

Meanwhile, Moo Deng’s international popularity isn’t just limited to her predictions; she won over 93% of the vote in an informal online poll held by “The Tonight Show,” outperforming both Trump and Harris.

As Moo Deng joins the ranks of “animal oracles,” she follows in the footsteps of creatures like Paul the Octopus, who famously predicted the outcomes of eight World Cup matches in 2010.

These charming animals, despite their lack of political expertise, never fail to capture public attention.

From her home in Thailand, Moo Deng is lighting up the U.S. election stage in her own unique way, even if it’s just a delightful distraction from serious polls.

With fans awaiting her next antics, Moo Deng’s viral fame has shown no sign of slowing down, making her a favorite fixture in the world of internet celebrities.
