Is the life of a human child more important than an endangered gorilla? Does it depend on circumstances?
The boy (or his parents at least) were careless. They should have watched him more closely. The gorilla was not deliberately trying to harm the child. Quite the opposite, he was trying to protect him. There are some cellphone videos showing this. Why not tranq the gorilla?
This adds to the list of reasons why I despise Zoo's.
Rest in Peace Harambe
