Footage shows Harambe, a silverback gorilla, dragging a 3-year-old boy around

 



in 2016. Harambe was a silverback gorilla at the Cincinnati Zoo. One day, a 3-year-old boy fell into the gorilla enclosure, and Harambe began dragging him around.


The zookeepers were forced to make the difficult decision to shoot and kill Harambe in order to save the child. This sparked a lot of debate about whether the zoo did the right thing, and whether the child's parents should be held responsible.


In the aftermath of Harambe's death, there was a lot of public outcry and anger directed at the Cincinnati Zoo.


People also debated whether the child's parents should have been more careful, and whether the zoo should have had better safety measures in place. 


Some people even called for zoos to be shut down altogether, while others argued that zoos are necessary for the conservation of endangered species.

Michael Morrison and his girlfriend, Debbie Means, were brutally murdered on prom night in 1980. After attending the dance, the couple was run off the road and forced at gunpoint to get into another car. Debbie was raped, strangled to death, and then Mike was shot execution-style. After attending the dance, Mike and Debbie got dinner at the Carriage House Restaurant in Belleville, and then attended a small party at the abandoned Peabody strip pits. They left about 2:30 a.m. but never made it home. It’s believed that Mike’s 1963 Plymouth Belvedere was run off the road before the couple was forced at gunpoint to get into someone else’s car.  They were then driven three miles away to an isolated spot near Funk School Road and Jack’s Run Road where Mike was locked in the trunk while Debbie was bound, raped and strangled to death. Mike was then removed from the trunk and shot point-blank in the back of the head three times and left face-down in a ditch. Investigators soon zeroed in on M...

Charla Nash was severely mauled by her friend's pet

 In 2009, a woman named Charla Nash was severely mauled by her friend's pet chimpanzee named Travis. Travis had been raised like a human and could even perform basic tasks like using the toilet, making coffee, and riding in a car. However, on the day of the attack, something seemed to trigger the chimpanzee, and he viciously attacked Nash, biting her face, hands, and feet. Nash survived the attack, but she suffered severe injuries and had to undergo multiple surgeries. This case raised questions about the safety of keeping chimpanzees as pets and whether people truly understand the dangers of owning a wild animal. After the attack, there was a renewed debate about whether chimpanzees should be allowed as pets, and whether stronger regulations should be put in place to protect people and animals. Do you think that people should be allowed to keep chimpanzees and other wild animals as pets?

 In March of 2017, 14-year-old Bobby was reported missing from his home in Phoenix, Arizona. His mother, Sarah Linhart, told police that she had last seen him at their home the previous evening. She said that Bobby had taken a shower and gone to bed, and she assumed he was still in his room when she woke up the next morning. But when she went to check on him, he was nowhere to be found.  After Sarah reported Bobby missing, police searched the neighborhood and interviewed family and friends, but they found no sign of the boy. Two days after Bobby went missing, police received a tip that he had been seen at a nearby bus station. However, surveillance footage from the station showed no sign of Bobby. The case went cold, and Bobby’s family began to fear the worst. Then, in May of 2017, police received a tip that Bobby had been seen near a highway about 100 miles from Phoenix. Police and volunteers scoured the area near the highway, and they eventually found Bobby’s body in a shall...
