Nothing is ever 100%. Shouldn’t we at least talk about shared responsibility? Zoo visitors have to behave too. I think that even though we are hearing a lot of talk about the actions of these visitors, it is important for us to understand how involved they were. I would also like to know if they had the ability to understand that they were in danger. Maybe their condition prevented them from making the right decision to flee properly and stay out of danger.

Zoos have a responsibility to manage the human critters outside the cage as well as the nonhuman critters inside the cage. They should expect that some people will try to provoke the animals and protect these people from themselves.
