This is my thought on it as well. Also, the kid should not have been able to get to where they were, and that should be the fault of the parents, not the zoo. You can use the argument that the animals shouldnt be on display, but hell, if a child was about to be attacked by a gorilla, my first instinct would definitely be to stop it as quick as possible by any means necessary.
The whole controversy around this story has been blown so far out of proportion. The fact of the matter is, the child's life was saved. If the child wasn't saved, people would still have a problem.
