Dubbed colloquially as the "Pheasant-Elect", the bird's plumage bears a uuuuge (we're sorry) resemblance to Trump's own iconic combover.

Tourists are flocking (like, really sorry) to the Hangzhou Safari Park, a zoo in the Zhejiang province of China's east to take a look at the Trump-like bird.

The zoo is home to around 50 golden pheasants. Each bird reaches to about a metre in length.

"So does this bird look like Trump, or does Trump look like a Chinese pheasant?" wrote one user.

"Come on, this bird is more handsome than Trump," commented another.
