It’s a gorilla, get over it

Gorillas in the wild are doing nothing less than what God intended them to do. Is God at fault for one of his particular creations and the emotions HE gave it?

Essentially a bunch of no nothings chimed in on something they didn’t understand. All they heard was a gorilla was shot. I don’t think we really know the details of what happened to judge the mother or the gorilla for that matter. But what do they think would have happened if they sent a park worker down there to try to obtain the child from the gorilla? It doesn’t stop with gorillas, and forgive me as I am not a dog person, but the care and devotion people give to dogs is beyond the pale in my opinion. People I know will spend thousands to keep them alive, buy them doggy massages, ect...

Having done three different African safaris and currently planning another one there are few Westerners who are bigger fans of African wildlife than me.I see the death of that gorilla as very unfortunate indeed.But having seen the zoo video and many documentaries explaining the strength of an adult male gorilla there's NO WAY IN HELL that the zoo could have done anything but what they did.

Humans trump gorillas.Every...single...time.

What was the MAKE, model, and CALIBER of the rifle used to dispatch the beast? Why is that info so secret?
