Bronx Zoo picks name for escaped Egyptian cobra

By musiclover - Thu Apr 07, 4:14 pm

New York’s Bronx Zoo has found a name for the cobra that escaped from her pen and was discovered six days later: Mia.

The name, selected in a public poll, is identical to the American acronym used to refer to soldiers “missing in action”.

The winning name was nominated 222 times and received 27% of the more than 59,000 votes cast, the zoo said.
