Young gorilla dies after zookeeper's fatal mistake

In Alberta, Canada, a tragic incident occurred at the Wilder Institute/Calgary Zoo involving a young gorilla named Eyare. On the day of the accident, Eyare was happily moving around her habitat when a zookeeper accidentally opened the wrong hydraulic door, striking her in the head. Despite immediate veterinary efforts, including CPR, Eyare succumbed to her traumatic injuries shortly after. The zoo has since launched an investigation into the incident, emphasizing the necessity for improved training protocols. As a result of this tragedy, the zookeeper involved will undergo additional training before returning to animal care duties. The zoo community mourns Eyare's loss and is committed to preventing such occurrences in the future.
