@@Sepi-chu_loves_moths You'd think it would be the opposite due to the pygmy's hippo smaller size n everything. Nile Hippos are so fucking huge that they only thing they really have to worry about are lions, hyenas and people. Honestly i would think Pygmies would be more hyper aggressive.
Apparently Moo Deng means “Bouncy Pork” in English which is a chewy pork dish. She also has half-sisters named Moo Tun and Moo Wan which translate to “stewed pork” and “sweet pork” respectively. Whoever named these little fellas needs a raise.
more like "pork" rather than pig. but I mean.. in thai doesn't differentiate between "pig" and "pork". another note on the words, Moo Deng (หมูเด้ง) is generally more of ingredient rather than standalone dish. it uses as either wonton filling or as a topping for noodles Moo Tun (หมูตุ๋น) is bascially pork stew in chinese five spice.
This isn't the first time a pygmy hippo from the same Thai Zoo got internet meme fame. While Moo Deng certainly is the most famous, Moo Wan (meaning Sweet Pork) is known for that one image of a tiny hippo trying to bite a leg.
The image of a tiny hippo monching on a leg is actually Moo Toun (Braised Pork), her older brother. Moo Wan's fame is one clip of her as a baby bathing calmly with her signature bright pink chin, and her ability to open enclosure doors.
Nahh, Pigs don't have huge round eyes and their snout always cover their mouth. They're a poor attempt. But I'd rather have a pig than a Hippo. Tiny as it is, when Moo Deng grow up he's definitely going to be the kind that can kill tigers with a single bite.
same!! im thai too but i actually first heard abt her from my friend who lives all the way in denmark lol. so proud of Moo Deng for existing as the beautiful lil hippo she is tbh, i really hope she is well cared for and protected from disrespectful tourists 🥹
If you go to see moo deng please be nice to her. She’s only a few months old. You wouldn’t be horrible to a squishy baby human, why be nasty to a squishy baby hippo?
Those are Chinese tourists, who are notoriously shitty people. There are plenty of good Chinese people, but there is something really wrong with Chinese tourists.
Thai people like to name their animals after food because they find it cute. Food is an essential part of Thai people's lives and it brings joy and family closer together. They also often address animals by 'Nong!' (with high pitch voice) which means 'little brother / sister' to express their fondness of the animals like they are part of the family. And Moo Deng might have just saved the entire zoo with her cuteness.
This is similar to how in the Cincinnati zoo they also have two star hippos that got popular. One is named Fiona who is all grown up now and now she has a baby brother named Fritz that she plays with
I remember that hippo. It mainly got famous for surviving complications at birth which forced the zookeepers to get hands on with the baby hippo resulting in some great footage. Fiona is a common hippo though which get up to 4-5 times bigger than pygmy hippo's.
@OLDmanBOB eh...unfortunately, that just comes with the territory of things a lot of zoo animals put up with. I'm sure the keepers shut that shit down the moment they see people misbehaving like that.
I'm not religious at all but I would hang that picture on my wall. Something about how Jesus is holding him just makes it seem like that hippo is the most important thing in the world and its great.
I mean Jesus is there with God when they cook this up 🤣 I can't tell who thought of it first like. Hear me out a walking Wall of an animal but it's baby form is basically just a long cute ball 🤣
I feel like I've seen this cute pygmy hippo before. And yeah, she's adorable! I really hope she stays safe because if she isn't properly protected, things could go wrong quickly. The zookeepers need to be careful with that sort of stuff. May she continue to be cared for by people she trusts to keep her safe. Edit: Ok, so I've just gone through my watch history, and yeah, I have seen her before, and it was Guardian Australia's video on her. So yeah, for those who are about to say it, no, it wasn't her half-sister, it was her. Clear? Clear.
@@sompretOk, so I've just gone through my watch history, and yeah, I have seen her before, and it was Guardian Australia's video on her. So yeah, no, it wasn't her half-sister, it was her.
It nice seeing another "Internet's favorite" animal being added to the roster, especially a baby hippo, idk if there has been a hippo in the cute category for internet favorite's before.
The North American House Hippo is found throughout Cananda and the Eastern United States. House Hippos are very timid creatures and are rarely seen, but they will defend their territory if provoked. They come out at night to search for food, water, and materials for their nests. The favourite foods of the House Hippo are chips, raisins, and crumbs from peanut butter on toast. They build their nests in bedroom closets, using lost mittens, dryer lint, and bits of string. The nests have to be very soft and warm, House Hippos sleep for about 16 hours a day.
In one of the interviews, the zoo keeper said that he'll make Moo Deng famous as the zoo asks him what he'll do for his permanent employment at the zoo. Imagine the zoo director saying "Let bro cook"
In Japan they kept this one train station in Hokkaido open for this one high school student untill she graduated (Kyu-Shirataki* train station, 2016). Unfortunately the popularity led to some people standing around wanting to get the perfect shot of her waiting for the train, asking her to stand some places for their photography, causing her problems.
As a Thai, I just want to clarify the meaning of her name. Moo Deng directly translates to “Bouncy Pig/Pork.” Not jiggly, although that would be cute lol. It is also a common meat ball made of pork that is enjoyed in noodle soups. Her name is effectively a pun because of her bouncy nature and personality. As well as the fact that her appearance is round, much like a meatball🦛🐽🎀💕
The sad thing is that Moo Deng is apparently being abused, like people throwing food at her while she's asleep to get her attention, staff annoying her on purpose to get a reaction and people just abusing her for clout. It is really sad to hear.
The people who were mean to Moo Deng only to record a reaction just show that they didn't come to see her. They came to milk her for social media attention. Please respect other living beings with the due respect all beings deserve. It's not a good action, its common decency and manners.
Always sucks that there will be people there to ruin the fun for everyone else and often times we can’t really put a stop to it due to how complicated it can be and how widespread these people can be
So im not the only one who had like an insane ammount of baby hippo content rn ah. Tbh like a month ago when it first happened i was freaked but happy out but now it all makes sense.
If they don't have Moo Deng plushies yet, they really should. Companies are already banking off of plushies involved with blue sharks, and white baby seals; the Thailand zoo should make plushies of her so they will get more money to help her!
I hope this brings attention to this critically endangered species. There are very few left in the wild so hopefully people will support conservation projects that are trying to save the species ❤
NOOOoOOooo...! This wholesome baby hippo video has ruined my nihilistic feed! How I am supposed to think about slow, but firm, rot of our world with this pocket Murder Horse at the back of my head?!
Do not worry. It will probably return in a few years because given the history of how Hippos treat people that love them and raise them, you will see a tragedy.

Moo Wan's fame is one clip of her as a baby bathing calmly with her signature bright pink chin, and her ability to open enclosure doors.
