Here's an actual good story that restores some humanity. https://www.facebook.com/HuffingtonPost/videos/10153889062286130/
This is the best comment I've read about the Gorilla: Why kill a member of an endangered species? There's no shortage of three year old humans and their neglectful parents, why punish the gorilla? LOL For real though, I blame the Zoo for not having better safety precautions and for having spaces big enough for a 3 year old to get through. And it must be a big spot, my 3 year old looks tiny compared to that boy. No one knows what the parents were doing, maybe they have multiple children and were tending to one of the others. Either way, there shouldn't have even been a space that big where guests could access it.
Managed to EXCEED my goal for the day...only because I set the bar so low. Lucky timing and some high value HITS = 24.00 Tapping out to go work on my non-cooling refrigerator
HE DIDN'T EVEN KILL OR HURT ANYONE? why kill it at all? If it ate the babies face off or ripped its arms from his sockets I'd understand but he played with it?
I remember doing this HIT (the male version) when she first posted it. There was a problem with the survey that screened everyone out towards the end so if you did manage to get pretty far into it you might want to shoot her an email. Had a dummy HIT set up and still got paid.
It sucks that the gorilla is dead but if it were my kid, I wouldn't want them to wait for somebody to be dead before they took action. And the kid was hurt from what I read. The fall didn't do any damage so the injuries came from the gorilla. The way he dragged the kid through the water was super scary to watch. He could have caused the kid to hit his head or drown. In the end, the gorilla is innocent but they had to save the kid.

I don't know I believe that tho, I think that's the Zoo trying to justify the shooting. How the fuck is 2.5 foot tall person not going to get hurt when they fall that far? But then again on the other hand the video only shows 2 minutes and he was in there for longer. So who knows.

This reminds me of the video of that dude who got eaten by a bear in the zoo LOL. That was gory as fuck... The zoo probably worried that that would happen and it would be posted all over social media.
