Gorilla killed

And yet... it's easy to stand from a distance and proclaim your idea of what's right and wrong for someone else's loved one when the potentially horrific consequences would be to someone else's life instead of your own. 

Me, I'm extremely pissed off and saddened by what happened. I think, the zoo took the only avenue available to them at that kind of situation. They're not at fault. I just hope there will be consequences for the mother - after careful evaluation of what really happened, of course. If she was japping away at her phone or something like that, make her feel the pain and sue her guts. If she paid attention and the boy somehow escaped her care, which can happen with 4 year olds, let her off the hook.
