Euro 2024 | Oracle orangutan backs Germany for a win against Scotland
Walter , the Orangutan, predicts the winner of the Euro 2024 opening game between Germany and Scotland from his enclosure at Dortmund Zoo in Germany Euro 2024 hosts Germany are on course for a narrow victory in their opening match against Scotland , according to an oracle orangutan at Dortmund Zoo. Walter , 35, is no stranger to predicting the outcome of football matches, and is a veteran of previous World Cup and Euro campaigns, as well as German and European club competitions.
Walter stopped in front of the buckets, and then he took a look at both and he was very strictly going to the German bucket, so I think it must be a victory for the German team against Scotland. But then he went to the Scottish bucket, so maybe the Scottish will be very close too.Walter joins a list of creatures as differing as an octopus and an elephant, that have predicted the outcomes of international soccer matches, usually by picking one bowl of food bearing a team’s flag over another.
Among the most famous was Paul the oracle octopus who lived in an aquarium in the German city of Oberhausen, and who shot to fame in the 2010 World Cup, hosted by South Africa, for his uncanny ability to predict the results of Germany’s matches.Who we choose to trust can have a profound impact on our lives.
