The appearance of animals in a video predicting the US Super Bowl winning team is a hot topic.
On the 12th (local time), the 57th Super Bowl (Super Bowl LVII) was held in the United States. It is a large-scale festival that attracts the attention of more than 100 million Americans as a championship match between the champions of the American Football Association (NFC) and the American Conference (AFC). This year, the Kansas City Chiefs (KC) and the Philadelphia Eagles (PHI) competed and the Chiefs won the trophy.
Along with the news of the victory, videos of animals predicting this victory are attracting attention one after another on social media. It is known that American zoos have a culture of asking animals to predict the winning team before the Super Bowl game.
Moe, an otter at the Oxner Part Zoo in the U.S., guessed the Chiefs won, while another otter, Mitch, went straight to the Eagles and failed his prediction. At Brevard Zoo, two long-tailed lemurs each chose Chiefs and Eagles. At Rosamond Gifford Zoo, 3-month-old twin elephants Yad and Tukada predicted the Super Bowl result. Yard picked the Chiefs and Tukada picked the Eagles.
Netizens who saw this video commented, “The Chiefs really won!”, “I love Yard (elephants), but I support the Eagles”, “Because they are animals, shouldn’t they cheer for the Eagles?”, “Animals are winners every year. It’s fun to see predicting the future.”
In addition to this, various American farms also uploaded prediction videos of pigs, turtles, and parrots. The prediction results of general companion animals, not zoos or farms, were also a hot topic. A man in New Jersey asked his three dogs and one cat to predict the outcome. When only one out of four dogs succeeded in predicting, netizens showed interesting reactions such as “I need to raise a fifth pet” and “It was consistently wrong like last year”.
