There’s a bird that looks exactly like Donald Trump

A bird at a Chinese safari park has become an overnight internet sensation after a journalist pointed out the striking similarity it has to US President Donald Trump.

Little Red, a five-year-old golden pheasant, is now the zoo’s star attraction, sporting a quiff that’s a dead ringer to the style used by the soon-to-be Leader of the Free World.

The bird’s keeper told the Daily Mail he didn’t actually notice the resemblance until after the pictures went viral, but now expects tourists in the droves. He said, “I expect more tourists to come to our zoo to see the pheasant now that he has been in the news.”

Little Red is a dead ringer!

This isn’t the first time the President has found a doppelganger in the animal world, with the ‘Donald Trump’ caterpillar in the image below featured on Jimmy Fallon.
