Safari in Brazil names baby llama after Ronda Rousey

Brazil loves Ronda Rousey.

Despite the UFC women's bantamweight champion defeating Brazilian fighter Bethe Correia in Rio de Janeiro in August, guests at a local safari have chosen to name a llama born on the grounds "Ronda" because she is a trending topic.

"Usually when an animal is born at the Portobello safari, an animal which has a slightly longer gestation, we select the two most talked names in that period as a tribute," a Portobello Rosert and Safari official told MMAFighting.com. "In this case, Ronda was the name chosen by guests."

The hotel said that Rousey's name was perferred by over 80 percent of the guests, which makes her undefeated in this contest, too.
