Pale-Skinned, 700 KG 'Donald Trump' Buffalo With Light-Coloured Hair Takes Bangladesh By Storm, Video Goes Viral

As Bangladesh gears up for Eid al-Adha, two unusually famous buffaloes have stolen the spotlight - not just for their size, but for the world leaders they allegedly resemble. Nicknamed after Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu, the animals have become viral sensations, drawing crowds, selfies, and endless curiosity at farms near Dhaka and Narayanganj.

The first buffalo, nicknamed "Donald Trump", weighs nearly 700 kilograms and has captured public imagination for its pale skin and light-coloured hair, which many visitors say bears an uncanny resemblance to the former US president's iconic hairstyle. According to a report by The Independent, a visitor quoted by Bangladeshi newspaper Prothom Alo joked that while the buffalo looked similar to Trump, its personality was far calmer and gentler. The buffalo's owner, Ziauddin Mridha, told local publication The Business Standard that the nickname was originally given by his younger brother after noticing the animal's unusual appearance. He also noted that albino buffaloes are generally peaceful unless provoked. The animal has already been sold ahead of Eid celebrations. 'Calm Before the Storm': Donald Trump Shares AI-Generated Image Warning Iran Amid Reports of Potential US Air Strike Discussions.

The second buffalo, named after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, has gone viral in Narayanganj for entirely different reasons. Weighing over 750 kilograms, this animal is reportedly far more aggressive than its counterpart - frequently snorting, charging at handlers, and displaying unpredictable behaviour. A farm manager quoted in local reports described the buffalo as "naughty" and said it seemed to possess a "devious intelligence", only adding to the internet fascination surrounding the animal. Donald Trump Says Islamic State Group Leader Abu Bakr Al-Mainuki Was Killed in Joint US-Nigerian Mission.

With Eid approaching, the two buffaloes have turned into unlikely viral attractions across Bangladesh. Visitors continue flocking to the farms to photograph the animals, while social media users debate whether the comparisons to the world leaders are strangely accurate or simply a hilarious coincidence. Either way, "Donald Trump" and "Benjamin Netanyahu" have found a way to trend - this time, on four legs.
