At Khao Kheow Open Zoo, Zoological Park Organization of Thailand ( ZPOT ) director Attaporn Sriheran predicts that” Moo Deng” fever will last for at least another three months before the baby hippo grows and loses appeal among children and the media.
When” Moo Deng” disease subsides, Mr. Attaporn claimed ZPOT already has a program to promote other baby animals. He, however, refused to say what kind of girl species it will be promoting next.
Over the past weekend, the two-month-old stoat hippotamus has attracted thousands of interested visitors to Chon Buri’s Si Racha district’s zoo.
” The number of Thai and international customers on Saturday surged to 15, 000 from around 2, 000-3, 000 for the same period last month.
” I believe the number of visitors]travelling to the zoo] may continue to rise for about another three months, both on weekdays and weekends, as they really want to get a picture of the wonderful, slender and bouncing creature,” Mr Attaporn said.
He stated that the park is concerned about visitors ‘ comfort and safety, and that it is now open daily from 8am to 5pm. Tourists can purchase tickets to the park at the new opening, he said.
Moo Deng is gaining more and more foreign fans as a result of becoming a global internet experience. Moo Deng’s brand means” bouncing animal “in Thai, and is also a typical meat food known for its chewiness.
In an August surveys, about 20 000 Twitter people chose the name.
She was born on July 10 to family Jona and papa Tony, who had Moo Toon and Moo Warn before her, both of which were given names after things on the Thai food selection.
Ka Moo and the Gang, Mr. Attaporn’s creator, was the person who credited Moo Deng with creating it. He claimed that the site has documented the development of the newborn hippotamus since she was born and has since gained public support.
The baby hippo has n’t yet had her teeth, according to Mr. Attaporn. She continues to be fed by her family. She may consume fruits and turf when she grows up, which will cost between 300 and 400 Baht per day.
