Gorilla tragedy at Cincinati zoo

[Catherine]

That is a well thought out article. There is no doubt that Harambe became agitated by the situation. That did increase the danger level. The whole situation was out of hand the moment the child fell into the exhibit. The zoo had to make the best decision they could, immediately.

Discussions that look at what happened and try to prevent further accidents are helpful. Second guessing the zoo and what it did is not helpful. It won't bring Harambe back.

Most zoos are going to be looking at their enclosures and increasing their safety levels. It is sad because those of us who do respect zoo boundaries will be less and less able to see our favourite animals. It will have to be that way for the safety of the animals.
