Get back at your ex on Valentine’s Day with ‘Cry Me a Cockroach’ fundraiser from San Antonio Zoo

Purchase a cockroach or rat, name it after your ex, and zoo staff will feed it to the animals. The San Antonio Zoo is helping scorned exes with its third annual “Cry Me a Cockroach” fundraising event. Birds, reptiles, and mammals from the San Antonio Zoo will chow down on your symbolic exes and other people who you’ve decided are worthy of the dishonor. This Valentine’s Day you can purchase a live cockroach for $10 or a frozen rat for $25 and zoo staff will serve it up to birds, reptiles and mammals to eat. The rats will be fed to the zoo’s reptiles so if your ex was a snake this could be a good option.

According to the zoo, there’s also a vegetarian option to feed the zoo’s vegetarian animals if you’re looking to get a little revenge on a less-than-stellar roommate or someone else you might have annoyed you recently. “Veggies consist of romaine lettuce, cabbage, and other leafy greens,” zoo officials said. If you’re not into the bug/rat thing but still want to contribute this may be the option for you. It’s also a tad cheaper at $5.
