Video: Child falls into gorilla enclosure at Cincinnati zoo - Gorilla shot dead

[CM Punk]

Gorilla did nothing wrong. That's fucked up

It's a shitty situation.

They can either tranquilize and wait until it takes effect, but then there's a chance the gorilla would erupt and harm the child. No point in risking the chance, so they just kill it.
Mother should definitely be charged though for not watching the kid.

I would've just let the gorrila keep the kid as a toy, but then I'd get sued :

Gorillas seem pretty logical. I would have grabbed one of his gorilla buddies for a Mexican stand off. He probably would have released the kid to save his primate pal

Kid break his fucking legs or something? Could've easily looked for an opening and bolted, or tried to chill with it.

It takes at least 10 minutes to get in to that enclosure. You have to climb down, under, and over several barriers. This means the parents were not paying enough attention to the child for at least 10 minutes. The zoo had to kill the gorilla because the people screaming were making him upset and he likely would have killed the child. If everyone stayed calm maybe they could have swayed him away with food but they only had seconds to act. I do think the parents are to blame here. There is no excuse to take your eyes off your child for that long in any place, specially a zoo.

idk i was expecting something similar out of tarzan to come out of this.

I just watched the vid.. from what we saw the Gorilla wasn't being the least bit violent toward the child. Looked like he was concerned for the kid to be frank. The kid was in the water and the gorilla probably was trying to help him not drown. The gorilla obviously wasn't threatened by this tiny child.

People be stupid as fuck

They shouldn't have shot the gorilla, the parents are to blame here.

I think the mom of the child should be thrown into a pit of the gorillas family with bananas shoved up her ass

You don't know gorillas very well. lol He was running around that like while holding the child because he was scared of the screaming. The way he was holding the child was that of a toy, not to protect it. If he was protecting the boy, he would held him close to his chest - Female gorillas are way more likely to do this than males so it is no supirse he didn't. He could have snapped and killed the kid. If everyone actually stayed calm, I don't think he would have had to been shot but the chances of getting a large group of people to shut up during something like that is impossible.

I wouldn't have been screaming or making noise. I read a lot and study a lot on animals. That is the one thing I actually do have knowledge on.
