So it seems that the folks at the Bronx Zoo can't find their Egyptian cobra. They think she's hiding in her enclosure, but she's apparently hiding pretty well:

Meanwhile, somebody has been posting on Twitter as @BronxZoosCobra, and it's hiss-terical:

For example:

"Holding very still in the snake exhibit at the Museum of Natural History. This is gonna be hilarious!"

"Enjoying a cupcake @magnoliabakery. This is going straight to my hips. Oh, wait. I don't have hips. Yesss! #snakeonthetown"

"On top of the Empire State Building! All the people look like little mice down there. Delicious little mice. #snakeonthetown"

:D

I heard on last night's news that they closed the Reptile House till they find her. They are pretty sure she hasn't left the building. :D

I don't use Twitter, thanks for sharing those posts! :cool:

I recently deleted my Twitter, but have been laughing hysterically at these posts. :D

A couple of the latest posts:

"Thinking about seeing "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying." That Daniel Radcliffe really speaks to me. #snakeonthetown"

"City may not sleep, but I'm ready to. Ooh a chimney! I bet you bragged to your friends about having a working fireplace in NYC. Hi roomie."

Oh that's too funny!! (The Twitter posts)

I hope they find her before she gets hurt, or she hurts someone/something.

I think she'll stay in the reptile house where it's warm.

Now the cobra has hijacked Ryan Secrest's Twitter account. :D And his website:

Gotta love April Fool's Day, no?

(If you're really freaked out by snake photos, you may want to skip the website.)
