    Moo Deng, a baby pygmy hippo in Thailand, has found viral fame on social media, gaining over 2 million followers in a matter of months. The bouncing hippo star lives in Khao Kheow Open Zoo, but her face can be found on posters, souvenirs and food products around the globe. Moo Deng’s popularity has also created a surge in zoo ticket sales, generating about 19 million baht (US$576,000) between September 1-25, 2024. But the endangered animal’s sudden fame has sparked controversy, with US animal rights group Peta accusing the zoo of forcing Moo Deng into “a lifetime of confinement”.

    Me thinks PETA would find a way to be negative about this no matter what. They could have just said, "we're happy that people are in love with baby animals, let's do our best to support all animals"

    PETA out here embarassing themselves again. Lots of animals are born in captivity and are still very cute. Non-deformed dog breeds and non-deformed ornamental fish strains, cats, Guinea pigs, hamsters, and rabbits for example.

      Also they ignore the fact animal in captivity lives longer due to nutritional diet and modern medicine. But also some animals are too late to be rehabilitated into wild such as animal born in captivity.

    Just ignore the Western organization, they just entitled to get offended by anything. Animal sanctuary is important, and so is a zoo because a zoo is more effective in term of raising awareness about the endangered species to the people. As long as the zoo seriously taking care of the animal, there is nothing wrong with it.

    The reason they are endangered is because that they were outside and people targeted them. We need to keep these hippos under close care and protected before they become extinct. If their population under protection exceeds 10000 then some may be transferred to fully protected wild sanctuaries that are well monitored. Simply asking endangered animals to be released to the wild is utterly foolish when humanity has driven many animals to extinction in the wild.

    I dare you to ask PETA to look after the baby. They can talk as much as they can, but in the end the zoo was the one taking care of the baby. Look at it, the baby was happy and was pampered with love. Meanwhile PETA is trying to take that away and acted like they were the saint. This is what happens when idiots runs PETA.

You have stated that you are a Hongkonger, also that you are Chinese, and that you miss the British Crown ruling Hong Kong. You have also stated that you miss the Japanese fascistic and genocidal Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere, which between 1937 - 45 killed 20 million Chinese.
