Where do you propose we put them, then? They're Western Lowland Gorillas, which in case you don't know, are critically endangered (there are less than 150,00 left in the wild). The zoo keeps 6 there to conserve their species.
It's not that simple when you're rehabilitating an orphaned gorilla. You can't just throw it into the wild with no skills. Not all zoos are for the sake of exhibition.
The Calgary Zoo has 6 Western Lowland Gorillas, which are critically endangered species (there are less than 150,00 in the wild right now). Zoos like this one are keeping them there to conserve their species.
Yep, that's what it is....but not to worry as long as the public pay the entrance fee, and we make a healthy profit. After all, isn't that what it is all about?
Yeah, because you've never made a single mistake in your life. Maybe go take a look in the mirror before you start judging people with no context. I could be just as judgemental of you, but I'm not because I'm a decent human being.
This is not just "human error" this is incompetence and goes straight to the top for hiring someone not qualified for the job. How hard is it to open and close a door, especially when there is an animals life on the line??? morons
Spare us the animals are better than humans garbage. Animals have committed the exact same evils 10% of humans have done. Humans at least have morals and the average/good humans outweigh the evil ones. Animals done care for anything they just consume whatever uncaring of the pain they cause. Show some gratitude towards your fellow man cause I can guarantee a lot of people wouldn't be here without the support of the society we live in.
@juliehuseby7876 there is no such thing as a good marine park. Killer whales and seals are not on the extinction list. All marine parks are for human entertainment and animal suffering. Zoos are also for human entertainment. Whereas a sanctuary can benefit any animal that is under threat of extinction.
Why are they not trained properly before killing an animal? Are they not hiring the right people? This is not acceptable. To many animals have died in less than ten years. They are hiring unqualified people.
"Things do happen, deaths do happen, accidents do happen, but what you want to avoid is the press ever ever letting the public hear of it." is what he means, I am sure.
This type of accident would not happen if they hired someone the least bit competent, how hard is it to open and close a door without hurting the animal?? As for "going out of their mind with overwhelming grief and sorrow." that is simply your projection, you have no idea how they reacted. This person needs to be sweeping floors for the rest of their life where they can hurt no one, no thing.
An "accident" would be if somehow the door malfunctioned. A human pressing the wrong button when a life is at stake is not a bloody accident it is incompitence at the very least
But as usual when government is involved, nobody will be punished for this, but they will pay 1000s of taxpayers dollars hiring an (outside?) company to make new procedures & safety measures to shift the blame & the person will get counciling & a years paid leave, they look after their own at our expense.
Sad, say whatever makes you feel better, human error?! Sad, i have a question? Why do they call them wild animals? ..... they should be in the wild and natural habitat, not fake ones
Gorillas should never have to worry about doors because they shouldn't be indoors

These majestic animals should never be kept in zoos for our entertainment.
Morons in charge

DEI hire strikes again.

This is why many people favour animals over human beings

because humans are horrible
Absolutely disgusting..Calgary should NEVER have a Zoo ..
This is devastating. That person is an incompetent fool. How could you be so careless with these majestic animals.
ban ALL zoos and marine parks!
Without GOOD zoos and marine parks, some animals would be extinct. Pandas are a perfect example. No zoos would have seen Pandas extinct.

@@juliehuseby7876it’s true they are very necessary for the conservation of certain species
These people don’t seem competent enough to take care of the majestic animals.
Animals don’t belong in cages!!
This kind of error's showing how underqualified are those "keeper "!😡😡😡😡
Why don’t u just shut the whole thing down?? My dog sitter probably knows way more than u guys know about how to take care of animals
The Calgary zoo sure kills a lot of animals, with just not knowing what they are doing.
Unexceptable
I HAVE TO SAY IT OUT LOUD. This is tantamount to manslaughter. Why is it always Calgary Zoo?
WHO belongs in the cage ?
No more zoos
Ban animal prisons. AKA zoos.
Animal murderers. Shame. You should not be allowed to keep animals.
This makes me sick
Disgusting
Please set these animals free! They deserve to be free!
We have no rights to keep them captives.
Why are they not trained properly before killing an animal? Are they not hiring the right people? This is not acceptable. To many animals have died in less than ten years. They are hiring unqualified people.
Calling them accidental deaths too, meanwhile it;s dumb employee's who do not care, and don't know what they're doing..
Harambe and now this?! End the genocide
Who is gonna sue who.
This breaks my heart...sad as *$%&
Incompetence due to hiring DEI employees.
"Things do happen, deaths do happen, accidents do happen, but what you want to avoid is the press ever ever letting the public hear of it." is what he means, I am sure.
Wouldnt trust this zoo with a plant even
Yeah we fucking assumed as much 🤦🏻♂️
It was an accident! The person that made the mistake is probably going out of their mind with overwhelming grief and sorrow.
Poor momma gorilla! 😭😭

I am concerned about the endangered baby that was killed (victim) and the gorilla parents, not the perpetrator.
Incompetence
An "accident" would be if somehow the door malfunctioned.
A human pressing the wrong button when a life is at stake is not a bloody accident it is incompitence at the very least
Those doors need SENSORS. That poor baby should be living her life right now.
The publiç needs to quit supporting this horrific animal cruelty everywhere! They were born to be wild! RIP
Wow 😢 Terribly sad 😢
But as usual when government is involved, nobody will be punished for this, but they will pay 1000s of taxpayers dollars hiring an (outside?) company to make new procedures & safety measures to shift the blame & the person will get counciling & a years paid leave, they look after their own at our expense.
Omg this horrible
Bad organization really bad
Sad, say whatever makes you feel better, human error?! Sad, i have a question? Why do they call them wild animals? ..... they should be in the wild and natural habitat, not fake ones
Not sure how this is news. Enough with the outrage provoking content, it's making society unhealthy
These people are incompetent
DEI hire no doubt.
Rac*ism never dies.
Idiot MAGAt you are.
No doubt you're American eh?
Possibly someone with broken English?
Trump has enabled open racism like this.
Another example of the mistreatment of Africans by north American institutions 😢😅
Close the Zoo... multiple animals die there every year...
oh no not again
🙊 Same thing happened at San Francisco Zoo. 💔 Now they're trying to bring in Pandas 🐼🐼
Stop !
Poor little guy…and his poor little pen buddies.
Eyare was a sweet little girl 🩷🕊️
D E I hiring working out huh? Name the employee. I bet it's 20 letters long.
Look, another idiot MAGAt. Eff-off!
OHH OHH AHH AHH
What a clown. Probably some public sector union dolt.

Disgusting
