Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that In celebration of Valentine’s day, the San Antonio Zoo is allowing its attendees to name a cockroach after their ex and feed it to a lizard.
For a donation, the San Antonio Zoo will symbolically name a cockroach, rodent or vegetable after your “not-so-special someone.” At your request, the zoo will also send them a digital downloadable Valentine’s Day card to notify them that a bug, veggie or rodent that bears their name has been fed to an animal at the zoo.
Those with an especially stubborn ex-partner, former boss or bygone bestie who made 2022 hard to bear can opt for a $150 upgrade, which includes a personalized video message that shows the cockroach, rodent or vegetable being devoured by a zoo animal. There is a limited supply of the video option.
The San Antonio Zoo is offering a special Valentine’s Day greeting for exes who just won’t bug off.
For $10, the zoo will name a cockroach after your not-so-special someone and feed it to an animal — a cold, but direct message that you’re no longer interested.
“Right now, we are on track to break last year’s record, with ‘Zach,’ ‘Ray’ and ‘Adam’ being the most submitted ex-names so far,” said Cyle Perez, the zoo’s director of public relations, in a CNN report.
Zach, Ray and Adam, you know who you are.
Last year, Jacob and Sarah were the most-submitted names, CNN reported.
Donors who contribute $5, $10 or $25 will receive a digital downloadable Valentine’s Day card that proclaims their support for the “Cry Me a Cockroach” fundraiser. Donors are encouraged to share the fun on social media.
According to the zoo’s website, proceeds from the fundraiser will “support the zoo’s vision of securing a future for wildlife in Texas and around the world.”
