Move over ‘Baby Shark,’ Moo Deng now has an official song

It’s the next natural step in virality. Internet favorite baby animal Moo Deng now has an official song, “Moodeng Moodeng” — available in four languages.

The 50-second upbeat song released Wednesday has simple but catchy lyrics such as “Please Mommy, come play with me / Bounce with me, Mom,” with other versions in Thai, Chinese and Japanese.

The music video stars the pygmy hippopotamus, who lives at a zoo in Thailand, bouncing around in her trademark style in a loop.

Moo Deng, now 4 months old, became a TikTok star in September when her caretakers at Khao Kheow Open Zoo in Chonburi, Thailand, began uploading videos of her going about her day, which mostly involves napping, getting hosed down for a shower and toothlessly chewing her caretakers’ knees.

The song was released by GMM Music, one of Thailand’s largest music companies, and produced by the well-known Thai songwriter Mueanphet Ammara.

The music videos across the four languages had gained more than 100,000 views on YouTube as of Thursday.

Moo Deng, who is named after a meatball that means “bouncy pork” in Thai, has become the zoo’s main attraction, drawing thousands of visitors every day. She is prominently featured on zoo merchandise and has appeared in cosmetics, bakery and clothing advertisements. 

Earlier this month, Moo Deng also joined the ranks of U.S. election prognosticators when she correctly predicted a win for Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump. Her caretakers offered her fruit platters featuring watermelon carved with the local name spellings for Trump and his Democratic rival, Vice President Kamala Harris

Moo Deng dug straight into the Trump concoction.
