Zoo in Texas: Put the name of your ex on a cockroach

A Texas zoo helps with badroaches people who are not in the mood to celebrate Valentine's Day.

The El Paso Zoo has launched a campaign that allows people to name roaches the names of old couples, friends or any unwanted person. Thursday, these insects will be the dinner of several animals of the zoo.

The animal center page on Facebook displays black badroaches and several names or initials of some ex. Zoo officials said the response was so overwhelming that they had to shorten the registration period.

On Thursday, the display of the meerkats will be decorated with the names presented, then the badroaches will be used to feed meerkats, marmosets, tamarinds and other animals.
