cincinnati - After zoo staff in Cincinatti shot and killed a 17-year-old gorilla because a toddler fell into his residence, place users on social media both the zoo and the parents of the child through the hoops. Many wonder how it could happen on earth could arrive a little boy of four unseen in the residence of a gorilla. The question arises why the ape could not just be numb.

The boy hit Saturday afternoon (local time) in a zoo in the US city of Cincinnati severely wounded at the hands of the adult gorillas of almost 200 kilos. The boy had crawled through the railing and so fell into the gorilla enclosure. The monkey pulled the toddler ten minutes behind him.

The 17-year-old Harambe was then shot dead by zoo staff. 'Scandalous', so it sounds on Twitter. 'Who let a child of four coming so close that gorilla?', Many people ask themselves. Twitter users from home and abroad are outraged that the animal was to be slain because the parents 'too lax' were to keep the child in mind.

The zoo gets a lot of criticism, because the gorillas on video 'no aggressive behavior seems to show. The monkey had not attacked the child, but staff decided to proceed to kill because it's an 'extremely strong' monkey went which was in a stressful situation, let Zoo Director Thane Maynard said in a statement.

The Dutch primatologist Frans de Waal calls it a bad thing that the gorilla was slain and doubts that the monkey does not just have to be sedated. he writes in a message on his Facebook page that it does not completely determine whether dragged the monkey with the child or that he was trying to protect the infant correct. De Waal: 'It is obviously a difficult choice, but need alternative solutions are not first given a chance?'

According to eyewitnesses, the toddler was still conscious when the gorilla was shot, who had the child between his legs at that time. The boy was taken to hospital where he is being treated for 'serious but not life threatening injuries.
