“Moo Deng, famous baby hippo, predicts Donald Trump will win the election,” the post read.
On November 6 (Philippine time), Trump secured victory over Vice President Kamala Harris, officially becoming both the 45th and 47th President of the United States.
Following Trump’s historic win, Moo Deng once again took the internet by storm, and her prediction sparked varied reactions from social media users.

As Moo Deng continues to gain global popularity, fans are reminded that pygmy hippos are classified as an endangered species, according to the 2015 IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.
