Thai zoo celebrates famous pygmy hippo's second birthday

By GhanaSummary NewsroomPan-Africa

And while on the second anniversary of Moo Deng's birth, the pygmy hippo remains one of the world's biggest animal celebrities, for conservationists working half a world away in the forests and wetlands of West Africa, Moo Deng's viral fame has yet to translate into meaningful conservation gains for her elusive, wild cousins.

There is also another hippo at the zoo named Kha Moo (stewed pork leg).
