Friends of Harambe, give threatening looks to zoo visitors.
A little more than a year ago, a child climbed over the fence and fell into the gorilla enclosure at our local zoo. The zookeepers had to put the gorilla down in order to save the child's life. It was a very sad and unfortunate tragedy and I was thankful that the child was not harmed...he could have easily been killed.
This was my first visit to the newly opened gorilla area (it has been closed since then while they made adjustments to secure the area better).
It was a hot day and these fellas were hanging out in the shade, but I had a peek.
You have the perfect view. Your story is very sad/disturbing. I think I remember it being on the news. Gorillas are such magnificent animals. We were lucky enough to see them in Uganda, and its one of my life highlights.
