I can't imagine being a worker at a zoo, and knowing that one of the dangerous animals, or in this case reptiles, was roaming around. It sounds like a science fiction movie, but it did happen at The Bronx Zoo. This happened last week: A highly venomous cobra, escaped from her holding cage. Luckily she was captured Thursday morning in a dark corner of the Reptile House, according to Bronx Zoo officials.
While she was slithering around, the Egyptian Cobra has become a world-wide celebrity. After all, she did make headlines. She became a joke Twitter account set up on the snake's behalf now has about 200,000 followers. I wonder if she has a Face Book page? Maybe she can "friend" us.
