Malaysia’s National Zoo has defended its treatment of what appears to be a visibly overweight black leopard after a video of the animal went viral on social media.
The video posted by a TikTok user showed the male leopard named Apoh lying on his side in his enclosure in Zoo Negara. The video went on to rack up more than two million views and prompted a wave of jokes and memes across social media, with many viewers referring to Apoh as “chonky” and comparing him to a bear.
