It's hard not to feel sympathy for the Gorilla. The Zoo has said it's policy is to protect human life at all costs even if it means killing the prize exhibits. I suppose that's meant to be reassuring for the Zoo going general public but it's hardly fair that idiotic humans don't have to take responsibility for their own stupid actions.
