Forums - General Discussion - Kid falls in gorilla pit- gorilla is shot to death

This is so much bullshit. I don't know the full details if it was the mother that lifted her son over the gorilla enclosure and fell or if the son himself jumped over it, but everything that happened could've been entirely avoided if she watched over her son. And yet she has the nerve to post on Facebook to implicitly say how bad of a mother she is. And now there's a dead gorilla who didn't deserve any of what had happened.

JS, couldn't you just thorw some of the Gorilla's food inside of the pit and just send a Zoo employee to rescue the kid ? heck I know it's 'Murrica that we're talking about but I hope that it's easier to find some Bananas than a shotgun in a Zoo...



lol who cares its just an animal? Million humans in the third world starve every year but you dont hear the first world peoples outrage like you do in this story.

Should have shot tranquilised or tapered the ape, we have plenty of kids gorilla's are quite rare.

An expert talked about this and tranqulizers do not work fast enough and it also upsets the animal as well.  Talking that kind of risk could prvoke the Gorilla to injury the kid especially something as big and powerful as a full male silverback.  The expert stated that the Gorilla was already upset that the child was there so any thing that provoked its rage would esculate the situation.

All of a sudden everyone is a animal activist but i can assure you that everyone of these people would think/act diffrently if that would be their 4 year old child down there. What a hypocritical society.

Of course we would act different. From starters, we wouldn't let our child fall into the gorilla pit.

This is not thé worst that happened :

Recently a man tried to kill himself going into à lion pit, thé zoo keepers were forced to kill thé lions to save this stupid guy

Yep. The only that that deserves death was that fool, not the lions.
