To capitalize on attention in the springy littlester that has become a global actor, Khao Kheow Open Zoo is considering filing a trademark for” Moo Deng the Hippo.”
The Associated Press reported in a story published in Time newspaper that Zoo Director Narongwit Chodchoi stated that one goal is to stop the dog from being commercialized by anyone else.
According to the AP, he said,” We will have more money after we do this to support activities that will improve the lives of the creatures.”
” The advantages we receive did bring all of our species these to better life,” says the statement.
Moo Deng’s manager, Atthapon Nundee, has been posting photos online of pretty events of the creatures in his treatment for about five years. He claimed that he had never anticipated the adolescent pygmy hippo’s rise to online fame.
” It was beyond expectation”, he told The AP. I desired people to know her. I wanted a lot of people to explore her, or see her website, or left pleasure responses. I never would have thought ( of this )”.
Moo Deng has become a meme hot topic all over the internet, with her photo being used in attention-grabbing way by British professional sports teams, German football teams, and many other organizations. One fan also made a T-shirt outlining the hippo’s candidacy for US president.
Mr. Narongwit sees a way to generate income to help pay for the zoo’s mission in Chon Buri.
The 800-hectare page, home to more than 2, 000 creatures, runs breeding programs for some Narongwit. The dwarf rhinoceros, which is indigenous to West Africa, is threatened by hunting and loss of habitat. There are only 2, 000 to 3, 000 of them left in the wild.
The park has been producing Moo Deng shirts and pants to help increase money, with more items set to be sold at the end of the month.
Since Moo Deng’s popularity, the aquarium has seen a rise in readers, so much so that it has had to impose a 5-minute window at the end of the day on the vacation.
