September 13, 2024

Since her debut in late July, weekend visitor numbers at the zoo have doubled—and it’s easy to see why!

Moo Deng’s tiny size and charming antics have made her a star attraction, with zoo visitors flocking to catch a glimpse of her waddling around her enclosure.

As one of the world's most endangered species, pygmy hippos are a rare sight, making Moo Deng's presence even more special.
