Let's capture endangered species into captivity for human entertainment....... and then KILL said endangered species.
most of the time critically endangered species are kept in captivity to ensure a monitored and safe growth of their populations for the future as most of the time they will go extinct if left as they were in the wild
Well, I originally said the parents should be charged for the value of raising a new baby gorilla too. But chances are, that would cost like a quarter of a million dollars. LOL
-a zookeeper that has worked with Silverbacks for yearsI have watched this video over again, and with the silverback's postering, and tight lips, it's pretty much the stuff of any keeper's nightmares, and I have had MANY while working with them. This job is not for the complacent. Gorillas are kind, curious, and sometimes silly, but they are also very large, very strong animals. I always brought my OCD to work with me. checking and rechecking locks to make sure my animals and I remained separated before entering to clean.
I keep hearing that the Gorilla was trying to protect the boy. I do not find this to be true. Harambe reaches for the boys hands and arms, but only to position the child better for his own displaying purposes.
Males do very elaborate displays when highly agitated, slamming and dragging things about. Typically they would drag large branches, barrels and heavy weighted balls around to make as much noise as possible. Not in an effort to hurt anyone or anything (usually) but just to intimidate. It was clear to me that he was reacting to the screams coming from the gathering crowd.
Harambe was most likely not going to separate himself from that child without seriously hurting him first (again due to mere size and strength, not malicious intent) Why didn't they use treats? well, they attempted to call them off exhibit (which animals hate), the females in the group came in, but Harambe did not. What better treat for a captive animal than a real live kid!
They didn't use Tranquilizers for a few reasons, A. Harambe would've taken too long to become immobilized, and could have really injured the child in the process as the drugs used may not work quickly enough depending on the stress of the situation and the dose B. Harambe would've have drowned in the moat if immobilized in the water, and possibly fallen on the boy trapping him and drowning him as well.
if the gorilla was so damn important to yall why isnt his name in the title rather than SBG?
put some respeck on his name.
Because people actually need to get on the train
i mean if the kid's unmarried mom procreated 4 times with a convicted felon bum, chances are her parents are just as trashy. culture like this is pretty cyclical.We might as well start blaming the grandparents for having these kids and not raising them properly to watch their kids properly.

too farShoulda threw the parents in and let the whole family die. Average IQ probably would've raised an iota.

Hopefully those things have sensors for when they close, so a dummy doesn't get crushed.
Yea because those things never malfunction . Some of y'all man...
Well, Nothing can be 100% idiot proof. You are in a thread where a mother let her kid go off in a zoo, near the open gorilla exhibit....too far
