4 Real Life Example Background Information Video
On May 28, 2016 a three-year-old boy slipped and fell into a gorilla exhibit at the Cincinnati Zoo. He quickly encountered a 450-pound gorilla named Harambe. A witness told CNN the boy’s mother was temporarily distracted by other children when the boy fell. Harambe pulled the boy across a moat and was fatally shot by zoo personnel.

5 Video Transcript Transcript for A Scary Encounter for a Toddler at the Cincinnati Zoo: Here's ABC's Ron Claiborne. Reporter: The 3-year-old child somehow toppled into the gorilla enclosure at the Cincinnati zoo late this afternoon. According to witnesses, one of the gorillas was close to or touching the child. A 3-year-old child has fallen into the gorilla cage, and the gorilla is slamming the child into the wall and the child is in the water. Reporter: After the child fell into the gorilla area, rescuers went in, and one of them shot and killed the 17-year-old male gorilla named Harambe. The child was rushed to the hospital. They made the right choice and they made a tough choice because they saved that little boy's life. It could have been very bad. Reporter: Cincinnati zoo officials say even though the gorilla was not bothering the child, the decision was made to the gorilla because they believed the child was still at risk and the tranquilizer would have taken too long. Thank you, Ron.
