A massive 700-kilogram albino buffalo named “Donald Trump” has become an internet sensation in Bangladesh.
Located at Rabeya Agro Farm in Narayanganj, the rare bull went viral due to its pale pink skin and swept-forward tuft of golden hair, which locals jokingly say resembles the U.S. President’s signature hairstyle.
The animal draws thousands of curious onlookers and visitors daily, and is being pampered with four baths a day and frequent grooming sessions. Ahead of the Eid al-Adha festival, the famous buffalo was sold to a buyer from Dhaka. The buffalo’s viral hairdo has drawn crowds from across Bangladesh.
Weighing around 700kg, the buffalo was raised on a local farm in Narayanganj. It was fed a nutritious diet consisting of corn, soybean, and bran, contributing to its enormous size and healthy appearance. The buffalo has since attracted significant attention from visitors and potential buyers looking to purchase animals for Eid sacrifice.
Albino buffaloes are extremely rare, and appear white or pink due to a lack of melanin production.
A second buffalo is also attracting attention. Weighing over 750 kilograms, it has been nicknamed “Benjamin Netanyahu”. As per reports, the farm workers describe it as energetic and mischievous, known for snorting loudly and charging at handlers when it feels like it.
Muslim-majority Bangladesh is preparing for Eid al-Adha, the Islamic “feast of the sacrifice” next week. More than 12 million livestock, including goats, sheep, cows and buffaloes are expected to be sacrificed.
