Yes... you read that right. You can really name a cockroach as a gift for Valentines Day.

I think cupid may be playing a trick on us... but If you're tired of the same old card and candy gimmick check this out!

The New York's Bronx Zoo rolled out a new program called "Name a Roach" just in time for Valentine's Day.

This Valentine's Day, let your special someone know your love is eternal. Name one of the Bronx Zoo's Madagascar hissing cockroaches for your sweetie. Tens of thousands of roaches remain nameless and would make a great symbol of your love. For $10, we'll send your loved one a digital certificate (like this one) to cherish for years to come, featuring the name of your Valentine's roach.

 

 

However, your partner won't actually be revising a live roach you'll just be naming one of the thousands of roaches they already have at the Zoo. They claim your gift will also go to protect the Cockroach's.

 

Your donation will also help us protect these misunderstood love bugs, along with a lot of other animals, both big and small.

 

If you ask me... maybe you should just stick to getting some flowers. Click here to name a roach!
