In the USA they demand to punish the parents of the child, because of which the gorilla was shot in the zoo

The murder in the American zoo of a 17-year-old rare gorilla, to which the child fell into the aviary, caused indignation of the public. Activists criticized the actions of the Cincinnati police and directly the parents of the boy who did not see the son.

Thousands of Americans have already left their signatures under the petition, calling for the child’s parents to “account for their actions”. “If we consider it normal that you can kill the gorilla, which has not done anything bad, I don’t think that our animals should contain these animals at all,” Reuters quoted one of the activists.

According to eyewitnesses, the child for a long time tried to get into the aviary to the animal. When he succeeded, Goril grabbed him and began to drag him in her monastery.

Ten minutes later, law enforcement officers decided to open fire on the 180-kilogram beast. The lushing substance was not used for the reason that it does not act instantly. At the same time, the director of the zoo Tane Maynard said that the gorilla was unlikely to attack the child, but the situation was too unpredictable.

“They made a difficult decision, but the right decision, since it has preserved the life of the child,” added Mainard.

On Sunday, the Cincinnati police said that the parents of the guilty child were not punished, but did not deny that the charges could be brought sooner or later.

It should be noted that after the incident with the gorilla, the child was taken to the hospital, but the doctors did not find any injuries that threaten life. Whether the boy was discharged from the hospital, refused to report to reporters in the hospital.
