[@chuddledog42]

@@Sepi-chu_loves_moths You'd think it would be the opposite due to the pygmy's hippo smaller size n everything. Nile Hippos are so fucking huge that they only thing they really have to worry about are lions, hyenas and people. Honestly i would think Pygmies would be more hyper aggressive.

[@DonforthDHC]

Apparently Moo Deng means “Bouncy Pork” in English which is a chewy pork dish. She also has half-sisters named Moo Tun and Moo Wan which translate to “stewed pork” and “sweet pork” respectively. Whoever named these little fellas needs a raise.

[@hrpang]

Actually, the community named them. They put out a poll on what the baby pygmy hippo should be named. It's how Moo Wan got his name.

[@OrengeBlaster]

more like "pork" rather than pig. but I mean.. in thai doesn't differentiate between "pig" and "pork". another note on the words, Moo Deng (หมูเด้ง) is generally more of ingredient rather than standalone dish. it uses as either wonton filling or as a topping for noodles Moo Tun (หมูตุ๋น) is bascially pork stew in chinese five spice.

[@lobstrosity7163]

Boring names, eat a palsternacka

[@hrpang]

This isn't the first time a pygmy hippo from the same Thai Zoo got internet meme fame. While Moo Deng certainly is the most famous, Moo Wan (meaning Sweet Pork) is known for that one image of a tiny hippo trying to bite a leg.

[@jojof3057]

Dude sweet pork is such a good name, and yeah I loved that video so much

[@sompret]

So we went from Sweet Pork to Bouncing Pork. Coincidence? I think not!

[@chetawanung-adjmagool9967]

The image of a tiny hippo monching on a leg is actually Moo Toun (Braised Pork), her older brother. Moo Wan's fame is one clip of her as a baby bathing calmly with her signature bright pink chin, and her ability to open enclosure doors.

[@LakkzScratch]

I feel like I've seen this cute pygmy hippo before. And yeah, she's adorable! I really hope she stays safe because if she isn't properly protected, things could go wrong quickly. The zookeepers need to be careful with that sort of stuff. May she continue to be cared for by people she trusts to keep her safe. Edit: Ok, so I've just gone through my watch history, and yeah, I have seen her before, and it was Guardian Australia's video on her. So yeah, for those who are about to say it, no, it wasn't her half-sister, it was her. Clear? Clear.

The one you've seen is probably Moo-Wan, if it's the one that did the leg "bite", that's one of Moo-Deng's half-sisters.

The North American House Hippo is found throughout Cananda and the Eastern United States. House Hippos are very timid creatures and are rarely seen, but they will defend their territory if provoked. They come out at night to search for food, water, and materials for their nests. The favourite foods of the House Hippo are chips, raisins, and crumbs from peanut butter on toast. They build their nests in bedroom closets, using lost mittens, dryer lint, and bits of string. The nests have to be very soft and warm, House Hippos sleep for about 16 hours a day.

[@cloudshifter]
