History
Rosita and Elmo with president and CEO of Sesame Workshop, Gary Knell
Rosita and Jesse with US Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Adm. Mike Mullen

Rosita was originally designed to look similar to a fruit bat and bore the name Rosita, La Monstrua de las Cuevas ("the monster of the caves"). However, her wings were removed in 2004 (the show's 35th season).[1] She wears a ribbon in her hair, but in difference to Zoe she does not wear two because she is just no longer so little.

Rosita was introduced to the series in 1991.

Rosita is performed by Carmen Osbahr, who originally worked on Mexico's Plaza Sésamo.

gollark: Ideally, pylon-of-civilization-hunting von Neumann machines, but those might not be practical yet.
gollark: The obvious solution to this """voting"" is to send really fast people out to gather all pylons of civilization and move them to a central base.
gollark: Yes. This is a good idea. I don't like it.
gollark: Any civilized person should aim to overthrow the system and improve this sort of thing.
gollark: Imagine using first past the post voting, instead of obviously superior approval voting.
