Everyone wants to blame the zoo but nobody is asking why the mother was sitting her kid on a ledge when it was specifically prohibited to do so. A reporter even lead a question with "Without placing any blame on the family, blah blah blah" I really hate when bad stuff happens to little kids.

not sure if i should mourn the death or be grateful that unfit parents will not be able to unleash one more inappropriately-raised adult upon the world.

Its definitely not the zoo's fault the idiot that put the child up over the railing is to blame...safety rails and nets are there there for a reason....I mean just look at the outrage from Michael Jackson for hanging his kid out over the balcony to show of to the paparazzi ( and he didnt drop him)
Common Sense isn't so Common :/

It's never "my" fault". It's america, it's always someone elses fault.
Sad but true.

Being that this is "local" to me I've heard most of it already, though I avoid the news like its the plague.
The dumb bitch never should have put her kid up on the rail. One of the guys I work with said one of the stories he heard was that the kid was walking along the railing. 100000% the mother's fault.

I honestly hope the parents are charged with endangering a child or negligence, or whatever the fuck they call it nowadays.

I just hope the kid was unconscious or dead from the fall before the dogs got to him. I'd hate to think he was alive for that 5 minutes of terror.

He was alive. Autopsy found that he died from the wounds, not the fall.

i would hope he was knocked out from the fall. terrible way to go though. should have tossed the parents in after him.

Body takes over in situations like that. He would've been in full blown shock, flooded with adrenalin. Doubt there was much pain.

Still, it was probably very terrifying for him. I can't believe nobody jumped in to at least try and save him.

It is horrible that the little boy died due to his parents mistake. :(
As much as I will preach that it is not the zoos fault and it is the Mothers fault and she should take full responsibility, that is just horrible!

What's really horrible is there are 12 men/women somewhere who will, because of their own grief over this tragedy, award the mother millions of dollars in damages against the zoo.
What should happen is a prosecution of the mother for involuntary manslaughter/child endangerment/etc/etc. and those 12 men/women somewhere could find her guilty and give the real victim some small amount of justice.
Just my 1.5 cents worth.

Well would hope for the later as well since it was her choice to lift the child up onto the safety railing.
As far as them suing the Zoo it would probably be a lost cause but I'm sure some blood sucking lawyer out there will try since it wont cost the family anything unless they would by chance win. I've been to the zoo many and they like many other venues have a waiver on their tickets so by purchasing and entering the grounds they are not liable for any damages. Just feel sad that they will probably end up in court :/
