Bangladeshi albino buffalo with distinctive pale hair becomes viral attraction
A nearly 700kg albino buffalo raised at a farm in Narayanganj district near Dhaka, Bangladesh has drawn crowds of visitors seeking selfies after being nicknamed 'Donald Trump' due to a tuft of pale hair on its forehead resembling the American leader's hairstyle. The animal has gone viral on social media ahead of Eid. The farm owner describes the buffalo as calm by nature and notes it requires special care including four daily baths and meals.
