Thailand's latest celebrity, baby hippo Mudeng, is drawing big crowds to her zoo.
00:05
Mudeng, whose name means bouncing pig in Thai, has millions of fans on social media following
00:10
her clumsy adventures, including trying to nibble her handler despite still lacking teeth.
00:15
The pink-cheeked hippo, whose siblings are called Pork Stew and Sweet Pork, was sitting
00:18
happily in a bowl of vegetables and other snacks when Reuters visited the zoo.
00:23
Eight hundred visitors used to be the norm for Khao Kaeo Open Zoo in Chonburi Province
00:26
during the rainy season.
00:28
But with Mudeng's popularity, the zoo gets 3,000 to 4,000 visitors on weekdays and will
00:33
count 20,000 visitors over the weekend.
