On a farm on the outskirts of Dhaka, a 700-kg buffalo is getting four baths a day, famous for his blond hair brushed with a pink comb, and goes by the name Donald Trump.
The animal, an albino bull whose flowing helmet of hair bears an uncanny resemblance to the United States President’s signature look, has become an unlikely internet sensation in Bangladesh, drawing social media enthusiasts, curious onlookers, and children to the gates of owner Zia Uddin Mridha’s farm in Narayanganj.
