Zoo will name a cockroach after your ex this Valentine’s Day

A zoo in England is giving visitors a unique chance to get back at their ex this Valentine’s Day.

For about $2, or 1.50 pounds, the Hemsley Conservation Centre in Fairseat, England, will name a cockroach after, “your, or your friend’s worthless ex- ‘someone ‘ on this special holiday of love,” the zoo says in a Facebook post.

The zoo says, “The offer could be a method of relationship therapy that doesn’t “require revenge” but is a way to “make you feel better about getting back at your ex this Valentine’s Day.”

The Facebook post says $2 gets buyers a printable certificate reading, “I’ve named a cockroach at the Hemsley Conservation Centre in the not so loving memory of my worthless ex!”

Hemsely officials said the deal is all in hopes of highlighting the bugs throughout the zoo’s “Name a Cockroach Programme,” in order to raise money for other projects at the zoo.
