Kathmandu: A rare brown (blonde) haired bull, nicknamed ‘Donald Trump,’ has been saved from being sacrificed during the Eid al-Adha festival following last-minute intervention by the Bangladesh government. The bull, weighing approximately 700 kilograms, had been sold to a customer for the religious sacrifice. However, the Bangladesh government decided to transfer the bull to a zoo instead.
Ahead of the Eid al-Adha celebrations on Thursday, a large crowd of ordinary people gathered to see the bull. Due to the security concerns arising from this massive public interest, the Bangladesh Home Ministry intervened on Wednesday. According to ministry officials, the decision to prevent the sacrifice was made in light of the extraordinary attention and crowd attracted by the bull. Under the direction of Home Minister Salahuddin Ahmed, the money was refunded to the customer, and the bull was relocated to the National Zoo in Dhaka.
Videos of the bull’s brown hair and calm temperament have gone viral across social media, drawing visitors from afar to the farm. According to the farm’s owner, Ziauddin Mridha, his brother named the bull ‘Donald Trump’ because its appearance resembled that of the former U.S. President.
