🎥🐵 Viral Video Alert: Bristol Zoo’s Gorilla Drama! 🦍🚨
A recent viral clip of ‘miserable’ gorillas at the closed Bristol Zoo has social media buzzing! 🌐 Urban explorers claim they wandered into the zoo effortlessly, sparking concern over the welfare of the gorillas and raising questions about zoo security. 📹🔍
Despite its closure in 2022, the zoo still houses eight western lowland gorillas, initially caught in the focus of a controversial video showing them banging on enclosure windows. The explorers, who say they just ‘walked straight in’, allege they could have opened the gorilla enclosure if they wished, highlighting the need for better site security. 🚪👀
Critics have raised issues concerning the wellbeing of these magnificent creatures. The gorillas are stuck waiting for their future home, the new African Forest habitat at the Bristol Zoo Project, to be ready. This eagerly anticipated move will expand their living space by four and a half times! 🌳🏡
Bristol Zoo ensure that, despite the delay, the gorillas receive top-notch care from their dedicated team of keepers. They maintain the animals have access to ample outdoor areas and temperature-regulated indoor spaces. 🏠✨
The zoo has faced criticism from wildlife charities and emphasises that repeated trespassing not only stresses the animals with alarms but also threatens their safety. Bristol Zoo has stepped up its security efforts, but wants everybody to think twice before trespassing. 🚷🚨
In a world where every click counts, this story is a potent reminder: respect for wildlife should always come first, whether the gates are open or not. Let’s hope the gorillas soon enjoy their brand-new home as planned! 🏞️❤️
