Disagree. I know nothing about Zoos, animal keeping or what have you but... chimps gotta eat, couldn't they just have approached them with treats laced with sedative?
+ in general, in case of situations like this, Zoos should be required to employ people with enough fortitude and good enough relationship with the animals to approach them to dish out said treats, or throw a net on them or whatever, maybe wearing riot gear and other protective equipment or what have you but yeah there should be a requirement that someone takes some degree of risk before jumping straight to shooting the animals, especially if they haven't even yet displayed any aggression or anything. It seems to me Zoos jump straight to shooting them because it's the safest (for them), quickest and cheapest way of ending the situation, which isn't good enough.
Actually, Zoos should be banned period lol but yeah.
