A pygmy hippo in Thailand named Moo Deng, who went viral and gained a lot of attention, now has an official song, Moodeng Moodeng.

As per CNBC, this song is available in four different languages and is 50 seconds long.

The music video features a pygmy hippopotamus from a zoo in Thailand, bouncing in her signature style on a loop.

Moo Deng also became immensely popular in a series of memes due to her chubby body shape.

Now, experts estimate that there are only about 2,500 left in the wild world wide.
