The online world is once again enchanted by a baby hippo's charm, this time featuring a delightful little girl named Moo Deng.

Moo Deng, a two-month-old female pygmy hippopotamus at the Khao Kheow Open Zoo in Thailand, has captured the hearts of many with her undeniable cuteness.

Her name, which translates to “bouncy pig” according to the BBC, has attracted significant attention on social media since the zoo began posting her pictures.

The fascination with her stems from her adorable demeanor and the unique traits of baby hippos. They are always slick and damp, which makes them both intriguing and a bit odd. Their plump, waddling bodies only enhance their appeal, making it hard not to fall in love with Moo Deng.

The internet has previously been charmed by another baby hippo. Fiona, the Cincinnati Zoo’s hippo, was named the “world’s most beloved hippo” in 2018 and still holds a special place in many people's hearts. However, Moo Deng may now be in the running for that title.
