#1 irresponsible parenting
#2 I doubt there would have been a petition of 2000 names for the boy, had he died, asking for the gorilla to be put down.

Jack Hanna was on Good Morning America and he stated in depth that there was absolutely no question that it was handled properly. He is deemed an expert by many.

Just remember,in this country we are taught that it's somebody else's fault. Who knows,maybe the parents will sue someone.
