A tongue-in-cheek Twitter user giving "updates" on a missing deadly Egyptian cobra now has some 35,000 followers.Incidentally, the snake now has over 101,000 followers, but on the upside, the Bronx Zoo gained about 1,000. :) The zoo is confident that the snake is still in the reptile house, hiding in a non-public area.
The 20in (50cm) venomous snake escaped from New York City's Bronx Zoo on Friday, and is yet to be found.
In one tweet, BronxZoosCobra says: "On top of the Empire State Building! All the people look like little mice down there. Delicious little mice."
In its Twitter account, The Bronx Zoo - which has some 6,000 followers - admits it is currently "the snake's game".
