Elephant to predict Euro 2020 results

A 42-year-old elephant at Hagenbeck Zoo has been selected to try to predict team results at the UEFA European Championship this month. Yashoda, the oldest elephant at the Hamburg, Germany, zoo, was chosen to predict outcomes of the German national team. She will make the “predictions” a day before the game by sniffing and picking [what could turn out to be] the winning flag out of a box. If she pulls both flags at the same time, the expected result would be a draw.

41-year-old "Yashoda," assisted by other elephants, will remove the winning country's national flag from a silver box one day before the German team plays a match.

If Yashoda removes both flags from the box, the game will end in a tie, according to Hagenbeck zoo.

Hamburg's soccer oracle was born "in the Indian jungle" and lost track of her herd shortly after birth, according to German media reports which also said Indian park rangers took the then baby elephant to the zoo of Mysore.

In 1990, Yashoda, who weighs a hefty 3.8 tons and eats around 150kg per day, arrived in Hamburg.

UEFA's Euro 2020 will take place between 11 June and 11 July 2021 and kicks off with the match between Turkey and Italy in Rome.

The zoo also organized a football match between the heavyweight trunk residents to showcase their football skills. The zoo’s team included elephants Mowgli, Shandra, Lai Sinh, Yashoda, Salvana, Kandy and Shila. Also, 3-year-old Raj and 2-year-old Santosh demonstrated their technique by dribbling past their teammates.

“Football training is a welcomed changed for the elephants,” Dirk Albrecht, the zoo’s managing director, said. “You can see how much fun they’re having.”

Hugh Stolliday, Suzie’s owner at Ouseburn Farm, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, said: “She’s a very intelligent pig... so sniffing out the winner of the Euros should be no problem.

“Before every Eng-land game we will give her a taste test to choose which one of two food boxes she wants to eat from.

“One will carry England’s name, the other their opponent’s.

“Whichever Suzie goes for will be her favourite to win.”

She will be making her first prediction on June 10 ahead of England’s opener against Croatia.
