A tiger and a polar bear in a Siberian zoo have joined the United States’ heated election making their choices between the two candidates.

As Americans head to polls to choose their next president, animals at a Russian zoo have predicted the outcome of the close race. Staff at the zoo in Krasnoyarsk had a Siberian tigress and a polar bear choose between two pumpkins with carved portraits of the candidates Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump.

The two electors had a hard choice to make since the pumpkin pairs were both filled with meat and fish which are their favorite treats. Their final verdicts turned out to be contradictory with Yunona, the tigress favoring the Clinton-pumpkin and the polar bear Felix selecting the Trump- pumpkin.
