Bangladesh Buffalo Nicknamed 'Donald Trump' Draws Crowds Ahead of Eid al-Adha

A buffalo in Bangladesh, nicknamed 'Donald Trump' due to its distinctive pale hair resembling the former US president's hairstyle, has attracted large crowds ahead of Eid al-Adha. Purchased two months ago for sacrificial purposes at about BDT 330,000, the nearly 600 kg animal became a viral sensation unexpectedly. Visitors from various districts have been visiting the farm to see the buffalo, whose owner emphasized the purchase was a normal Qurbani transaction without intent for publicity.
