They didn't shoot the gorillas ? - How un-American of the British
YourIceCreamMan
This incident differs from Harambe. Harambe was dragging the kid around and smashing him into rocks. Watch the video.

and that was a Female gorilla, doing what is natural

Jambo was not female. He was a large adult silverback

That's how we roll in Merry Old England. We don't shoot our chonky monkys.

This is how Harambe was killed. They're so empathetic, but they can't understand how much danger they're in. Stupid parent, foolish child.

They didn't shot the gorillas, the kid started crying and it scared them away.

Then they shot the gorilla
BethMme4
It looked to me like the silverback kept all the other gorillas away.
Jambo protected the child, stroking his back, till he woke crying, then led the other gorillas into their night enclosure so the kid could b
Be rescued. The crying didn't scare them away.

Kid fell into enclosure. King went to see what was up. Silverback gorilla + small human child= too dangerous to live.

He had a much less predictable or safe temperament, and the zookeepers knew that the kid was in much more danger than this one appears to be

If it doesn't have a tail it's not a monkey.
vindik8or
Apes are monkeys because they're descended from monkeys (catarrhines, old world monkeys), the same way humans are apes because we are 1/
descended from apes. Any definition of monkeys that doesn't include their descendants is unscientific. 2/2
If you're going to downvote then reply. Express your opposition. If you're capable forming words.

People need to keep their damn crotch goblins out of animal enclosures.

Why are you denigrating the child? This poor kid is hurt and scared. By all means attack the parent if you need to but don’t attack the kids
Klaustrophile
Crotch goblins!
peachesforme
You think this is bad now. Wait until texas zoo's in about 5 years. gonna be bad
VidiVeniThenSheLeft
While they should keep kids out, the overly dramatic aversion to kids is this generation's "i hate my spouse" boomer trope.

I think Zoos should have better barriers.
AnotherWretch
Probably should have better control of their kids too.
WellBehavedZombie
They do have great barriers, in fact some have 2 sets, but people climb over one and hold their kids on top of the 2nd to "see better."
There's always an idiot that will bypass safety because nothing bad will happen to them.
KevynDietz
At the nearest zoo to me, stuff like the gorilla enclosure is viewed through glass on the other side of a moat from a room with a roof.
You can functionally eliminate these risks, it's just more expensive then the standard 'concrete pit with a microenvironment in it'.
Well at that point why bother with barriers at all?
"Well we tried" legal defense.
TheAngryMarineBiologist
Because for every braindead fucknuckle who bypasses all the safety barriers, there's several hundred lesser morons who they protect.
GuaiLoh
I think we need to not have public viewing enclosures. Zoos are the fucking worst.
Purpose of zoos is to show people that these are real living creatures. When their habitats are being threatened people might think twice.
pinktinkpixy
Zoo programs are essential for the protection and breeding of critically endangered species.
TobiFuenke
So what about the public viewing?
Mechanic907
Public viewing is still dangerous. Never know what kind of animal will walk up to you on the street.......I think I misunderstood.
dryrunner
Probably helps cover the cost.
NoShotz
This is very likely.
titaniumsnail
But with that said, not all zoo's are the same, some definitely has the best of the animal in mind, while others doesn't.
catsandcoke
This is why you don’t set you child on top of the viewing wall
greatwyrm4512
This will probably get Downvotes. I think if your stupid enough to drop your damn kid into an animal enclosure. Then the animal shouldnt
Misteavalon
Yes, parents are dumb. But the kid shouldn’t pay the price of their parents’ mistake. Let’s have some compassion for kids?
pay the price you should. If the kid dies its because of your stupidity not the animal acting natural.
I would have no sympathy for the parent or kid. I was so disgusted when they shot that poor Gorilla.
Sloppydrunkcatlady
I mean I agree on the parent and animal part but it's not the kid's fault either if the parent was holding them
StrictlyBull
The gorilla is Jambi of an English zoo the child was accidentally dropped in after being lost from his fathers grip. This occurred in 1986
