There is something strange going on with the gorillas at the Calgary Zoo.

| gorilla, with a knife |
A keeper was fired this year because, after accidentally
leaving a knife in the western lowland gorilla enclosure in 2009 (that's how that one got a knife). He also left the kitchen door unlatched and in March
the male gorilla beat him up. Now, with a new keeper, it just
happened again,
twice in less than a year that the western lowland gorillas got in the kitchen.

I'm not sure what's so difficult about using a proper latch for a kitchen. Then, there was the big flood. Almost all of the animals were safely
evacuated, including the hippos, even though they nearly went downstream as wild,wild riverhorses in a new river zoo.

Mama mia. Dr. Jake Veasey: “There was the potential of hippos swimming out of the building and
into the flooded Bow River” and concern about
the big cats. Plan: In holding cells at the Calgary Court Centre.
