Story
Must have been a scary situation, a giant silverback on the loose between all those unsuspecting people. The woman that got mauled by Bokito, apparently came 3-4 times a week in that zoo, especially for the gorilla, she said she tried to connect with the animal. I guess she pulled it really off that time huh?
Anyone here know anything about primate behaviour? I hear that you should never look apes like chimps and gorillas right in the eye, because it would sort of provoke their anger, is this true? The woman in question did that every time, and also show him mirrors, after which he went completely berserk according to a zoo employee. Seems to me that the woman had some fun in harassing the gorilla, maybe that's why he didn't go after any other people, but just this particular woman. News says that she has somewhat 100 bitemarks from head to toe.
