You can never completely trust an animals actions. While they're often loving animals, they're also capable of killing in two seconds flat. Better safe than sorry. I think you would agree if that were your child.
People trained to work with gorillas have said his behavior wasn't that of a protector If they hadn't acted when they did he would have killed that little boy. I still believe that action should be taken against the parents tho. That kid climbed over 3 blockades before falling into the water. No one saw that?
@kellynicole, I do realize they didn't have any other option the tranquilizer would've taken too long, but my kid wouldn't be in a gorilla enclosure because I would be watching him.. He'd probably be on one of those leash backpacks because there's too many crazy people in the word now who would snatch up a child in a heartbeat. She had her hands full and should've had extra help with her instead of taking all those kids to the zoo thinking she had it under control. I just feel bad for the gorilla having to die because of her not paying attention to her child.
I agree... Putting him to sleep would of been better than killing him. An animal that's close to being extinct and they did just because someone couldn't take care of there child is not human!
@izamarpink, I think the parents should be punished for this. There should be a huge fine for someone who caused the death of an almost extinct animal.

I obviously hate that the gorilla was killed but that's a horrifying moment for a mother so I feel for her more than the gorilla
