BANGKOK — The Zoological Park Organization has partnered with Grammy to release ‘Moo Deng’ song in 4 languages – Thai, Chinese, English, and Japanese – bringing joy to fans worldwide, with free downloads available across all networks.
Following various merchandise releases, the latest development in the fame of Moo Deng, the world-famous pygmy hippopotamus at Khao Kheow Open Zoo, has led to the Zoological Park Organization of Thailand under Royal Patronage collaborating with major Thai music label GMM MUSIC to produce multilingual versions of the Moo Deng song. The Thai version was released on November 13, 2024.
Attaporn Sriherun, Director of the Zoological Park Organization, expressed gratitude to GMM Grammy for recognizing Moo Deng’s charm and creating a song to bring happiness to the public and Moo Deng’s fans. The song is available for free download as both a ringtone and ring-back tone.
“Beyond the beautiful music and music video, we hope that those who receive this will return to visit the zoo and develop awareness about wildlife conservation both in and out of their habitats, which will further benefit society,” Attaporn said.
Jamorn Jirapath, Deputy Director of the Music Creator unit at GMM MUSIC, said that GMM MUSIC intended to create an easy-listening, memorable song for Moo Deng that’s suitable for singing along and using in social media content.
GMM MUSIC has created two one-minute songs about Moo Deng’s personality that has captivated people worldwide. Both songs will be translated into three additional languages: English, Chinese, and Japanese.
