There was an incident at the Fort Worth Zoo last fall...but we have video now?
Ben White, a former security guard for the zoo found this video on his phone recently...
A video of two zookeepers in a Silverback Gorilla enclosure at the Fort Worth Zoo. The gorilla can be seen rushing toward one zookeeper, who exits but does not close the door because there's another zookeeper still in the enclosure. The gorilla and remaining keeper both freeze, and zoo attendees can be heard in the background. Elmo the gorilla ran to the other side of the enclosure, giving the second zookeeper a chance to escape. Neither one of the keepers were hurt, but it looks like Elmo's feelings were...watch him hold out a bucket like "you forgot your thing..."

Ben doesn't work there anymore? I'm wondering if it has something to do with him standing around videoing things at work... lol
