my son is 4 so i am torn on the subject.
the gorilla from the videos I've seen was protecting the kid and seemed to completely understand that it was a small human who was scared to death.
on the other hand if SOMEHOW my son got into that cage (there would be no fucking way he would ever get into it) I don't know how i would react.
IMO killing those lions because a grown man WANTED to commit suicide is far far worse.

The mother must be an idiot. Her kid was apparently telling her he wanted to play with the gorillas, and somehow she lost track of him and he managed to get past the barrier and fall into the water. The gorilla was doing nothing "wrong", and he gets taken out, because if he did kill the kid even worse sh*t would be coming down on the zoo officials today.
You guys are sick.
Kill it. Don't think twice about it. Move on to the next day.
Unfortunate things happen in life. Humans>animals.
Horrible job judging the parent as well. Unless you are holding onto your kids physically 100% of the day, things can happen. She had other kids with her too.
Sick how people have more empathy for the dead Gorilla than if the kid skinned his knee.

They should have tranquilized the gorilla and shot the mother.
