another great example of crappy parenting leading to the death of an animal.

why didnt she jump in after him? could have fought off the dogs in time to save him..or the dogs could have chewed on her instead and spared the child -.- so because of a mothers ignorance of putting her 3 year old child on a railing on the observation deck...one of the worlds rarest dogs have to be shot. i saw these dogs in person a few months ago and they are absolutely gorgeous.

heres another article explaining that she was standing the child up on the railing when he lost balance and fell. when i was there, im pretty sure there were signs stating not to lean or sit or stand on the railings -.-

Wow, that's a shame that one of those dogs had to be shot just because a mother thought she didn't have to obey the signs posted. I've seen that at various zoos and aquariums around the country - people just want their kids to get the best view possible, irregardless of other patrons around them.
