    A gorilla was killed by staff at the Cincinnati Zoo after a boy entered his enclosure. "It was pure panic."http://nyti.ms/1VoO351

        The root of our problem is that we still entrap wild animals for entertainment. What's that about?

        I'm glad the boy's okay, but where were his parents?? The animal's death and boy's fall were completely avoidable.

        kid wasn't in any danger so there was no "saving" to do. Thus, they did the wrong thing.

        he wasn't whipped, he was dragged around and its common gorilla behavior. The zookeeper even stated the kid was in no danger
