        headline should be 'Gorilla murdered because irresponsible parents/adults didn't watch kid'.

        I'm so sick of these stories. It's not bad enough that we lock them in tiny enclosures but we shoot them when we mess up.

        That Gorilla took better care of the child than his own guardians or parents!

        So an innocent gorilla is killed because incompetent parents let their kid wander away.

        aside from public wrath, will the parents face charges or legal repercussions? I'm sick at heart.

        Why does a gorilla have to die, because a human fell into HIS/HER enclosure? A gorillas life, is more important than this. #Travesty

        "Apparently" a tranquilliser wouldn't work in time BUT it still took 10 minutes to shoot him. Bullshit. Parents at fault.

        but the gorilla is dead. How does a child fall in there? Negligent parenting -that's how.

        Yeah, kid's expected to recover, what about the gorilla? That's his property,right?
