Moo Deng, a Pygmy hippopotamus living in the Khao Kheow Open Zoo in Thailand, has been crowned the top meme of 2024 by X. With well over 7 million posts celebrating this internet sensation's charm, Moo Deng has had an undeniable impact on the online world.
The baby animal took the world by storm just a few months ago, and along the way, even unbeknownst to Moo Deng himself, it has spawned hundreds of souvenirs and costumes, and even driven ticket sales to the zoo.
What started out as a mere zookeeper simply vlogging the animal's day-to-day life has since grown to become a beloved and viral internet sensation. Now, as the year is coming to an end, it seems that this internet sensation cum celebrity animal had a much larger cultural impact than we all thought.
In this list, we're taking a look at some of the funniest (and cutest) Moo Deng memes the internet has spawned this year.
