The Big Apple just can’t seem to retain its reptiles. A few months ago it was the Egyptian cobra that went slither-about from the Bronx Zoo. Now it’s turtles running rampant at JFK airport.
Well, trudging rampant.
The airport closed one of its runways because of the annual inundation by diamondback terrapins headed for a nice sandy spot to lay their eggs. This year, however, in addition to trudging the turtles are tweeting.
Well, of course they are.
They’re not nearly as witty as BronxZoosCobra, but then she’s footloose (well, she is) & fancy free, & they’re focused on procreation.
So I cut them some slack.In fact, I give both serpent & terrapins major props for going digital without, you know, real digits.
