Hippo Sees the Future: Meet the Bouncy Pig Who Called Trump’s Election Win
Thai Hippopotamus Predicts Trump’s Election Victory
The US presidential election polls show a stalemate, but a Thai hippopotamus has made its prediction. Meet Bouncing Pig, a 4-month-old hippopotamus from Khao Kheow Open Zoo in Thailand, who has become an internet sensation for its cute and funny appearance.
Bouncing Pig’s popularity has inspired a large number of by-products and social media photographs. Now, the little hippopotamus is predicting that Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump will defeat Democratic candidate Kamala Harris.
A video provided by the zoo shows Bouncing Pig choosing between two fruit plates, each with the names of Trump and Harris. The hippopotamus chose Trump, making its prediction clear.
Bouncing Pig is especially popular in the United States, where Chinese-American comedian Bowen Yang once played the hippopotamus on the variety show “Saturday Night Live.” The hippopotamus also beat Trump and Kamala Harris in an unofficial presidential poll conducted by “The Tonight Show” with a 93% approval rating.
While the prophetic skills of the hippopotamus have yet to be proven, other animals have gained a worldwide reputation for predicting the outcome of world events. The most famous example is Paul the Octopus, who correctly predicted the results of eight games of the 2010 World Cup in a German aquarium and became a world-class star.
