The post Meet Moo Deng, Thailand’s Baby Hippo Who Found Viral Fame appeared first on MyTrendTales.
]]>Moo Deng was born at the Khao Kheow Open Zoo back in July, and she became a huge hit with zoo visitors long before finding viral fame. The zoo built the hype for her birth by launching an online poll, allowing visitors to choose her name and 20,000 of them decided to go with Moo Deng aka “bouncy pork”.
Moo Deng became a viral sensation outside of Thailand after zookeepers started filming her and sharing her videos online. They show her doing everything from learning how to walk, drinking water, nipping on everything from grass to zookeepers’ knees, and simply being her adorable self.
Moo Deng attracted an influx of visitors to the Khao Kheow Open Zoo, and she’s now a star of her own 24/7 livestream, but her popularity wasn’t without its downsides. The zoo had to implement a five-minute time limit for visitors coming to see her, and they even had to warn them not to harass the animals in any shape or form.

]]>Hardesty works as a UPS driver in New Orleans, and he started meeting a lot of pets while delivering parcels after being moved to a younger neighborhood. He enjoyed these encounters so much that he decided to capture one of them and decided to keep taking selfies with local dogs after seeing how much joy they brought to people.
Hardesty attracted a huge following over the years, and over 160,000 people can’t get enough of his Instagram posts. He ran into all sorts of different pets while delivering packages for UPS, but dogs still remain his favorites, especially golden retrievers.
“I’ve met rabbits, goats, and pigs. I of course found that interesting because you don’t normally find those in New Orleans neighborhoods. Maybe a few chickens here or there… Number one has to go to any rescue dogs. There’s a special place in my heart for people who give dogs a second chance,” he told Bored Panda.

]]>The post Art Duo Raises Awareness About Endangered Wildlife With NYC Exhibition appeared first on MyTrendTales.
]]>The Wildlife Wonders exhibition is highlighted by a giant bronze octopus sculpture titled “The Arms of Friendship.” Spanning 36 feet, the piece includes sculptures of some of the world’s most endangered species, like rhino and hippopotamus, resting on the octopus’ tentacles.
The visitors are encouraged to sit on the tentacles to get a better feel of the sculpture and the message behind it and spend some time with animals they might never be able to witness in person.
“In the last 50 years, wildlife populations have plummeted by 69% globally. We are now facing the world’s sixth mass extinction,” Gillie said in a statement. “This crisis is beyond description, yet we remain hopeful and committed to witnessing change within our lifetimes. We trust that our art and the stories we tell can inspire people to engage in vital conversations and take meaningful action.”
Wildlife Wonders includes two more massive sculptures: “The Wild Table of Love” and “The Hippo Was Hungry To Try New Things With Rabbitwoman.” The former one consists of a bronze table featuring animals and the duo’s famous characters, Rabbitwoman and Dogman, with seats left empty for humans. The latter one captures a conversation between a hippo and a Rabbitwoman.
Wildlife Wonders exhibition will remain on display in front of World Trade Center Oculus until July 31st, 2025, so make sure to check it out if you have a chance.

]]>The post People Can’t Get Enough of Glen Powell’s Adorable Dog Brisket appeared first on MyTrendTales.
]]>Brisket appeared during countless red carpet events, photoshoots, and interviews alongside Powell in recent weeks, and that’s not a coincidence. He adopted him from the Labelle Foundation while filming Twisters and even took a weekend off filming to fly to LA and meet him.
It didn’t take long for Brisket to connect with the rest of the cast and crew, and his presence on set brought them closer together.
“There’s something wonderful about animals, about how they can bring our walls down a bit and expedite friendships and things like that. So yeah, Brisket’s been amazing. I consider him the best special feature of Twisters,” Powell told Entertainment Weekly.
Brisket became so popular that his absence from the actual film inspired many viral tweets people expected him to appear in Twisters. Powell even started a separate Instagram account for his rescue dog @hotbrisket, which quickly attracted over 60,000 followers.

]]>Created by artist Svetlana Petrova, the works from the FatCatArt project depict Zarathustra peaking behind the flower vase in Vincent van Gogh’s “Sunflowers,” resting in the arms of a man in El Greco’s “The Nobleman”, or being melted from too much snoozing in Salvador Dali’s “The Persistence of Memory”.
Zarathustra’s invasions of famous paintings have delighted social media users, who love the cat’s chubby look and how he always manages to be the star of any artwork he finds himself in. The FatCatArt has a dedicated and ever-growing audience on Instagram, amassing more than 281K followers there.
According to Petrova, she stumbled on the idea to make Zarathustra the star of iconic works of art from the past by accident. Looking for inspiration, she turned to Zarathustra and decided to make a still-life painting with him as the main subject. In order to get a rough idea of what that would look like, she snapped a few photos of the cat and photoshopped him into some classical paintings she found online.
Petrova was quite amused by the results and decided to share some of those works with friends. They thought it was hilarious, and the FatCatArt was born. Now, Zarathustra is present in more than 250 famous paintings, and we hope that the number will keep on getting bigger because we can’t get enough of the orange cat’s antics.

]]>The series was launched with a showcase of potential fashion choices of Australian Sheppard, Beagle, Boxer, Border Collie, Golden Retriever, and Great Dane. According to the creators, each breed would “pick out” fashion pieces based on their personalities and needs.
For example, an Australian Sheppard would go with practical outdoor gear considering their herding tasks and habit to explore the outdoors. On the other hand, Golden Retriever would pick out a yellow cashmere sweater, relaxed-fit blue jeans, and comfy loafers, showcasing their need for comfort and easygoing nature.
“How would different breeds of dogs dress? We sent our nature documentary team into the wild to investigate how different breeds of dogs would dress themselves, given the opportunity. Here’s what we found out, “The Maitrix explains in the caption of the video.
In the video showcasing the fashion choices of cats, a Persian cat is seen opting for elegance based on their grace and opulence, with their clothes being perfectly suited for “moments of contemplation in sophisticated surroundings.” Opposed to them is Orange Tabby, which dons denim-prominent attire to reflect their carefree spirit and complements their cool and composed demeanor.
If you enjoyed these couple of videos, you will be happy to hear that The Maitrix put together several other clips showing fashion choices of more breeds of dogs and cats. You can check them out on their official YouTube channel or by checking out the YouTube playlists below.

]]>Friend’s paintings capture cats snacking on a KitKat chocolate bar while resting in a chair, Dachshunds enjoying a self-care routine, and rabbits sipping on cocktails.
According to Friend, she has lots of ideas for her humanlike animals but never insists on producing her vision to a point on canvas. Instead, she takes a loose approach in her creative process, allowing the subjects to take “a life on their own” as she paints them.
“We think of them as having human emotions, and I try to capture that,” Friend explains on her website. “It’s how we connect with the animals in our lives. Hopefully I bring just enough to the work for the viewer to create their own story for the subject. I want the viewer to be part of the creative process.”
Friend shares her paintings on her Instagram profile, providing her followers a frequent dose of cute, adorable, and quirky animals. Check out more of her works below.

]]>Badger’s owner Cindy Park works as managing director of a FinTech firm in Portland, Oregon, but her true passions lie elsewhere. She’s a huge cat lover who has eight other cats in addition to Badger, and she describes them all as rescues and foster fails.
Park’s love for cats is one thing she has in common with her favorite artist – Taylor Swift. She’s a huge fan of the Grammy-winning singer, who blew her away with The Eras Tour, and Park couldn’t stop thinking about her ever-changing tour outfits.
She enjoyed them so much that she wished her cats could wear costumes just like them – and she decided to make it happen! She started crafting purr-fect cat-sized outfits inspired by Swift’s costumes and picked Badger as the model because he’s the most photogenic of her cats.
“As soon as he hears Taylor Swift songs he gets all excited… He recognizes Taylor’s songs now. It’s Mommy and Badger bonding moments. I love it,” she told People.

]]>Artist Matt McCarthy is creating surreal photomanipulations in which he imagines cats as giants inhabiting our world. They are still adorable but seem like they could cause humans a lot of inconvenience.
McCarthy shows his giant cats blocking busy streets, taking over crowded beaches, and climbing tall buildings that they could destroy with just one move of their paw.
According to McCarthy, he got the idea for this unique project while observing his own cat playing with a bug.
“The idea initially came to me as I was observing my own cats when they were playing with a bug that entered our house,” McCarthy shared in a chat with Bored Panda. “I wondered how they would react if my wife and I were that small. They’re so sweet and cuddly that we tend to forget they’re apex predators.”
McCarthy’s works have found quite a lot of fans on the internet. His Instagram page has close to 130K followers, while his photomanipualtions can be found on all sorts of products, from calendars to T-shirts.
