Mary:

  Yes, in Chicago at Brookfield Zoo... toddler (3) climbed up fence over
planter and fell 24 feet... Nursing mother with infant in arms resued child
and took to door where the keepers enter.... GREAT story. Interesting
information provided on the extensing mothering training this gorilla needed
prior to first pregnany as her own mother did not do same....

   WHY DO PEOPLE NOT GET IT? .....

    Also of note....where were parents/care taker of child when this
happened?    why did NO ONE watch stop child? None of this is talked about..
Zoo safety is being questioned.......
