Cincinnati Zoo Gorilla

The Cincinnati Zoo has had a horrific event. A Silver Back Gorilla got shot just because a little boy crawled into his enclosure. Here is my statement about the disaster.

In My Opinion
By Sophie

The Cincinnati Zoo in America has had a horrific event today! Do you know what it is? A Silver Back Gorilla got shot just because a four year old boy climbed into his habitat. In my opinion, THAT IS CRAZY!

PARENTAL TRAINING!
One of the questions I have is, where in the whole universe were the parents! Well, I know that they wander off sometimes ( most times) but sometimes they just need a break from you! But maybe this was kind of AT THE WRONG TIME!

DECISION TRAINING
There are times that we need to know HOW TO MAKE ACTUAL GOOD DECISIONS ( gun keeper )! The zookeeper was in a really hard position there, but it’s good to take chances even if you don’t succeed it’s better than making a BAD DECISION!! He had a tranquilliser gun in one hand and a real gun in the other hand but he didn’t pick to do the right thing!

ENDANGERED ANIMALS TRAINING
Everybody says that they will look after animals that are endangered and they say it in a gentle voice, BUT WHAT THE…..THEY JUST SHOT A SEVENTEEN YEAR OLD ENDANGERED SILVER BACK GORILLA!! Yes we all know PEOPLE ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAN ANYTHING, but we have to take chances even if the little boy died he probably has a twin brother ( SORRY PARENTS)! ANIMALS ARE MORE IMPORTANT!

DISTRACTION TRAINING
Everybody gets distracted sometimes but sometimes it’s a good thing! FOR EXAMPLE SAVING A BOYS LIFE! Now I know you won’t want to look like a rag doll in front of a gorilla and the whole zoo but you just go to do those kind of things in life ( you have a bad life)! Well, you should not have to do that if your lucky. You should just have to lower food to the gorilla and distract it while people get the boy out of the enclosure. The bad side of that is that you will smell a bit after it but who cares.

CONCLUSION TRAINING
If you feel for the gorilla you might follow me in my statement ( war on zookeepers ). I know it is hard to pick between a gorilla or a boy and you can’t change what happened then. It’s in the past but we can always reflect. I strongly believe that the gorilla shouldn’t have been shot because if the parents were there they could have stopped all of this drama, the zookeeper could have made a better decision, silver back gorillas are endangered and they should have made a distraction. Just look at it through my eyes and think? What gun would you pick, tranquilliser or real?

  1. Hi Sophie it's Miro from Room 6. I really like your writing because you made it sound like it happened yesterday and talking about we humans always think that we matter more than an animal that has less than a one twentieth of our population. Maybe you could add a perspective of the gorilla and a little of he would feel.

  2. Thanks for the good comment Miro. I didn't have that much time to finish it so I was rushing but if I took my time to reread and look through it I totally would have added that.
