Oh, 'Guardian'...!



Blimey!

Editors asleep at the switch, like the wretched kid's mother, you reckon? She's now been identified, raising further questions for the zoo, such as 'Why not let her in to rescue the child? What self-respecting silverback would fancy his chances?'...

Would have been a better idea than shooting the poor gorilla!

For info:

This is the plan for updating Gorilla World. It includes one photo of the current viewing space. It has to be admitted that the hip-level fence is not much of a barrier to either the suicidal, the malign or the just plain naughty.

Having said that, the world is full of metal barriers such as those to stop people wandering on to traffic junctions, falling in to harbours, and plummeting over balconies in shopping centres. Most people understand that children must be told not to climb on them or to go in to those places.

Has anybody mentioned Albert and the Lion?
