'In loving memory, Harambe 1999-2016' People gather to pay tribute to gorilla shot dead (photos)

Hundreds of 'mourners' yesterday gathered at the Zoo where Harambe the 17 year old Gorilla was shot dead, to mourn over his death, branding it a 'senseless death' . A bronze gorilla statue was created in the zoo where the mourners dropped flowers and paid their tributes to the gorilla who lived an 'innocent life' until his 'brutal' death. More photos after the cut.

Please! Everyone has become an animal rights activist overnight meanwhile the have massive steaks waiting to be devoured for lunch or dinner. How about they protest the daily butchering of cows and other animals alike. The zoo keepers made the absolute 100% right decision. A human life prevails over a wild animals life in a society inhabited by humans. Its unfortunate the gorilla had to die but it doesn't deserve all the raucous.

How many of these people have mourned the dead in Nigeria, France, Syria, Belgium, Pakistan, Afghanistan and so many others killed by terrorists. They are mourning the death of a gorilla. I am a zoologist and I know what it feels like for an animal to be near extinction, but I think as people we have lost our love for one another.

Edo new wife said...

TWISTED WORLD...GOD SENT HIS SON TO DIE FOR THE WORLD BECAUSE MAN WAS IN DANGER...IN DEATH...BUT HERE IS MAN WITH HIS TWISTED MIND WORRYING ABOUT AN APES LIFE OVER A LITTLE BOYS LIFE. THERE IS NO 100% ACCURATE PREDICTION OF WHAT THAT ANIMAL WAS GOING TO DO NEXT...THESE SAME PEOPLE WOULD RATHER SPEND ON THEIR DOGS AND CATS THAN SPEND TO SAVE A DYING NEIGHBOUR. HIDING UNDER THE GUISE OF PROTECTING WILDLIFE.

Unknown said...

Good talk!

If the same version happens to you, dnt come crying about how it's unfair when people respond exactly as you have. You think the mother was happy about her child crawling near the gorilla. Mistakes happen and karma is a bitch.

Chinedu said...

U re a wasted sperm

gentle said...

They protest o.Hmm...they call themselves vegan. They call people murderers for eating chicken, goat meat, cow meat, pork e.t.c

Unknown said...

Yes ooo. And these same people can pull a gun on one another over a meaningless argument without batting an eye lid. Rubbish people and their senseless activism.

Unknown said...

Eyahhh

Unknown said...

Make give them job, jobless yeye people

Unknown said...

May God over-bless U Ooooo. Bloody 'intetes' implying that a gorilla's life is more important than a child. Did they see the video and how the child was being dragged submerged in water????
If the child had died it would be a completely different story. Mtcheeeeew.

Unknown said...

They don't have anything bordering them so why won't they come out in hundreds to pay tribute to a dead gorilla.

Unknown said...

May God give dem job to busy them selves

Excellent statement Ma'am.

Okay oo.... #Lindatakenote

Unknown said...

I know this act of condolence will be strange to some Nigerians because they don't have value for human life, either do they care about animal protection. I can see the reason why international media don't bother to cover your news, because if they do, your lawless and inhuman societal behavior would trigger an urgent need for recolonizing you once again. I hope you guys would grow up on your own one day.

Anthony adeyemi u don't have sense at all...anuofia ofe mmanu

Unknown said...

White people and their way of living

KWEEN said...

Anthony Adeyemi, I totally agree with you. Don't mind these narrow minded pieces of shit insulting you. 1st off, that gorrila belongs in the wild, they put him in a zoo. He was there jeje o, Then some idiot woman let her silly child loose and he had to pay for the carelessness of some humans with his life. Like I keep saying, an animal is an animal and it will act like one. And any one who comes under my post to spew trash is a certified bastard. Linda, If you like use my comment to shave your legs and Don't post it ehn?!

KWEEN of fools,what you've just posted has given total credence/certification to your being a bastard! ;because any human being with a heart would never suggest that an ape's life be valued more than another human being's. Infact, KWEEN malificent,na him you be. Shioo!! Awon educated and enlightened minds, we don see una.

Wow, it's funny to see most of the commenteres are so full of hate and bad feelings, and hate animals so much, and hate people who respect animals. Ignorant idiots, humans ARE animals and we are overpopulating this planet. One day there will be just humans, no other animals or flora. What will you do then? So proud, and have less empathy than a rock. You go find a decent job, I'm sure most of you writing here are poachers or resentful drunks living in a shit hole.
