A child fall into the Gorilla enclosure
Saturday, may 28, 2016 at the Cincinnati zoo zoo, a gorilla of 17 years was shot dead after the fall of a 4-year-old child in the enclosure. The child had managed to slip under a barrier and made a 3 meter drop in the pit. Harambe, committed to the Gorilla, grabbed the child and started the trainer into the water several times. The animal that seemed initially protective began getting excited because of the cries of the crowd. Fearing that monkey, weighing more than 180 kilograms, is the wrong child, the zoo preferred to shoot it. It took about 10 minutes between the fall of the child and the shot. The boy was hospitalized for injuries, but his life is not in danger.
