A rare albino buffalo in Bangladesh becomes an unlikely public attraction ahead of Eid al-Adha after being nicknamed “Donald Trump” for its striking resemblance to U.S. President Donald Trump. Multiple reports describe the nearly 700–1,500 pound animal as having a blond tuft of pale hair falling across its forehead, a look that many visitors and the owner’s family associate with the U.S. president’s signature hairstyle. The buffalo is raised on a farm in the Narayanganj district near Dhaka. As Eid al-Adha approaches, the animal was reportedly sold for slaughter, but local authorities intervened after the buffalo went viral and drew crowds. In at least one account, officials step in to prevent the ritual sacrifice, and the buffalo is eventually moved to a zoo. The stories also note that the animal’s name comes from the owner’s brother, who chose it because of the buffalo’s unusual coat and hairstyle. Across the coverage, the central facts are the buffalo’s albino appearance, its online fame driven by the resemblance, and authorities’ decision to spare it from Eid sacrifice and relocate it to another facility.
