**Memphis, TN** – The Memphis Zoo is adding a unique twist to Valentine’s Day this year with its “Dating or Dumping” promotion. For a $10 donation, supporters can send a personalized video message featuring either an adorable red panda enjoying a grape or a humorous clip of an elephant depositing a… well, a substantial amount of dung.

The zoo’s playful campaign allows users to choose the perfect Valentine’s gift, be it sweet or… pungent. A charming red panda video is offered for those looking to express affection, while an elephant “doing its business” video provides a more unconventional (and potentially hilarious) option for less-than-ideal relationships.

“Got an ex that deserves a stinkin’ surprise? Let an elephant do the talking,” the zoo’s website proclaims. The promotion also encourages naming the offending elephant dung, offering a chance for users to get creative with their revenge. The zoo promises to reveal the most popular names at the end of the campaign.

All proceeds from the $10 donation go directly to the care and conservation of the Memphis Zoo’s 3,500+ animals. The deadline to participate in this unusual Valentine’s Day initiative is February 12th. To send a video message, visit the Memphis Zoo’s website.
