Bronx, NY, United States (AHN) – Still thinking what to get that
special someone for Valentine’s Day?
Well, think no more. Roses are so yesterday.
According to The Wildlife Conservation Society’s Bronx Zoo,
nothing says forever like the gift of a cockroach. After all, the
bugs can live for weeks with their heads.
The Society is offering a light-hearted way to make sure your
feelings are conveyed in a very special, somewhat creepy way, with
a roach named in honor of your recipient, and a 100 percent solid
COCOA-ROACH.
In 2011, thousands of hopeless romantics from around the globe
named real live Madagascar hissing cockroaches at the WCS’s Bronx
Zoo after their esteemed loved one, ex, or mother-in-law.
People went absolutely buggy with the promotion, and the success
of last year’s launch was so overwhelming that the Zoo is offering
the same opportunity for 2012, with an added bonus, if selected.
Each gift comes with a colorful certificate emailed to your loved
one announcing that a cockroach has been named in his or her
honor.
And to make the gift even sweeter, you can also purchase a
COCOA-ROACH for that special someone, The COCOA-ROACH is a 100
percent genuine sold dark chocolate in the absolute likeness of a
Madagascar cockroach. Made by The Chocolate Box NYC, the chocolate
creation is expertly crafted in every detail, and is sure to make a
lasting impression.
Each name costs $10 and COCOA-Roaches are additional $15.
