Sorry, I just don't believe at all that this was some random, sporadic deal and that it is the zoo's fault.

My favorite Jack Hanna quote in all of this is "A wild animal is like a loaded weapon".
An dto think that the last time I went to the zoo all I saw was a male giraffe trying to mate with a female giraffe. Try and explain what was going on to a five-year old-- "Mommy why is that giraffe jumping on the other one's back??"
