        Gorillas are gentle giants the story on the gorilla who was shot did not harm the child-the parents panicked! Movie: Meet Joe Young

        I believe they did what they needed to do. Err on the side of caution for the young human life.

        Man is too quick to shoot an animal without understanding them - the child did not get hurt or die in this case!

        Evidently the zoos need better security so little people can't get in! Maybe plexiglass barrier/fence? Or double rows of barrier?

        it's the damn parents fault that this happened. They should have been watching their kid & the gorilla would be alive now.
