Philadelphia Zoo Silly Question about the Reptile House

[CarLover]

As most of the venomous snakes at the Philadelphia Zoo have been sent to other zoos (which infuriates me) what will the zoo do with the giant cobra statue at the center of the Reptile and Amphibian House? Will it remain and have non-venomous snakes or will it be removed?

They plan on bringing them back in the nearish future, so I don't see why they would get rid of it. The statue doesn't necessarily mean they have to keep cobras in it

National Zoo has had a giant anteater statue in front of the Small Mammal House for decades, had hasn’t had that species in that building on my lifetime (nor elsewhere in the zoo for a few years)

Ditto for Maryland Zoo’s gorilla statues
