Deadly Cobra Loose at Bronx Zoo: How Would You React If You Came Across a Snake?

So much for enjoying a nice afternoon at the zoo.

A deadly Egyptian cobra escaped from its cage at the Bronx Zoo Saturday afternoon...and it still can't be found.

Workers at the Bronx Zoo are on the hunt to find the snake, but reassure visitors that it's probably not in an area that will reach the public.

Really, Bronx Zoo? That's the best you can do?

No word yet on if they're planning to bring in a snake charmer to find the cobra. Although we think that would be pretty frickin' cool.

How would you react if you came across a venomous snake?

    Give it a cookie :)

    Even an evil venomous snake can not resist the charm of the cookie!!

    Really, though, I'd prolly step on it on accident and get bitten.

    I would go home immediately. Of course I don't go to the zoo anyhow since I think animals belong in their natural habitats.

    If it's not close to me, I'd try to run away.
    If it is close to me, I'd stand where I am and try not to move.
    And it depends on what kind of snake it is.
    If it's that fast, deadly cobra then I would just try not to move.
    If it's some harmless, small snake, I would just slowly leave. :)

    Depends on what he's doing. I wouldn't run, that's for sure. Likely to make the snake all the more excitable and likely to strike. Slow, calm movements so that you're neither a threat nor a prey item.
