So, since people can’t seem to predict the most controversial election in US history, why not let animals give it a shot? Washington reports.

A Chinese monkey in the Shiyanhu Ecological Tourism Park in China’s Hunan province, His name Geda describing as the “king of prediction" which has an impressive record of correctly predicting the winners of European soccer matches was asked to predict the winner of the US presidential election.

Geda whose name means “goose bumps” cast his vote by selecting bananas beside life-size cutouts of Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton.

With US polls yo-yoing and conspiracy theories swirling on both sides of the political spectrum, some of the smartest people in politics are at a loss in predicting the outcome of Tuesday’s US presidential election.

Geda, who is 5 years old and wears a yellow shirt advertising his title, correctly predicted that Portugal would win the 2016 European football championship in July, AFP reported. Two days later, Cristiano Ronaldo’s team defeated France 1-0 in overtime.
