Moonwalking Baby Hippo Moo Deng Goes Viral Again

Moo Deng, the internet-famous pygmy hippo from Thailand’s Khao Kheow Open Zoo, has once again captured the hearts of fans worldwide with her latest stunt—a perfect take on Michael Jackson’s iconic moonwalk. The video, now viral on Instagram, shows Moo Deng stepping backwards smoothly in her enclosure, impressing viewers with her adorable imitation of the legendary dance move.

The Hippo Star of Chonburi

Known for her quirky and feisty personality, Moo Deng has previously been dubbed a “problematic pygmy” by some, but her fans adore her antics. This isn’t the first time the attention-seeking hippo has made headlines—she once playfully nibbled on her trainer’s leg, adding to her growing popularity.

Social Media Buzz

With over a lakh views and a flood of comments, Moo Deng’s moonwalk has sparked joy across social media. One user commented, “Michael Jackson who?” while another wrote, “She’s a rockstar!” However, not all feedback has been positive. Some have labelled her “mean,” accusing the hippo of choosing “violence” in her playful behavior.

Concerns for Moo Deng’s Welfare

While Moo Deng’s charm draws in visitors, zoo officials are concerned about her treatment. Some guests have thrown objects and splashed water at her to get her attention, actions that zoo director Narongwit Chodchoi condemns as “cruel and dangerous.” The zoo urges visitors to treat Moo Deng with kindness, ensuring she continues to thrive as the star of the show.
