Gorilla this, gorilla that. Let's not forget the real issue here. Stupid fucking humans thinking it's okay to cage and parade these animals around for profit under the guise of "conservation" is fucking sick. I know I sound like a tree sucking hippie right now but the last time I visited a zoo I left bummed out and said I'd never go back.

Check out the Ashboro zoo in n.c. almost all the enclosures are free range areas that are fenced or walled off. The wildlife have many acres to roam around. It's a really nice zoo.

thats what i said uptop.

we should not be "housing" these animals

my child will never go to a zoo or a seaworld. never.

Sounds good in theory, i dont think animals should be locked up either but at the same time, ive been able to see animals i wouldve never seen in my lifetime because of zoos and seaworld and stuff ans im thankful for that. so i dunno. I just think its too late now. Any animal released at this point would just die anyway. Damage is done already. Real talk tho, a lil girl around the corner from me was just murdered by her moms bf. I could giva f less about that gorilla.

youre absolutely right once all the ones in zoos die from natural causes or more likely the depression and bullshit they go through via zoos and seaworld we can stop housing them in zoos and seaworld

Still. Are they allowed to hunt each other? Many acres is still not the same in my opinion. There's nothing natural or right about a zoo I don't care how big the enclosure is. A cage is a cage.

I do not understand why they did not paralyze the Gorilla. Tranquilizer guns can deliver Anectine and that would have worked. The only risk was the Gorilla falling on the child but they took that same risk with a bullet, sad.

Ultimate responsibility for their child should rest with the parent.

some articles mentioned "displaced aggression" when tranquilized but idk.

There's an excitatory stage that could be very dangerous.

I hope that enclosure is child proof..

Here's the link to a brief email from Jane Goodall to the Zoo Director, just after the incident, basically politely saying that she believed the gorilla was placing it's arm around the child to protect it, like the incident several yrs earlier where the child and gorilla had been saved
