Surely they could've tried something else as a distraction? food or something?

They did, they tried to get him to come in by enticing him with food I believe all the other Gorillas did go in except him

What is tragic is, if in his head, he was like "Yeah I want to go in for food too but, ****, that little kid just fell all the way down here and he's scared and upset... maybe he's being chased by those screaming people up there... so I'm going to stay and make sure he's alright. You all go, guys."

And he got shot for it!

Bit of an allegory for the situation with humans though to be honest; I wouldn't go over to a lost / upset child to try to help when I'm on my own, for fear of some sour-faced mother charging at me screaming "Paedo!!!". I'd keep an eye on them and try to find a staff member wherever I was instead.

That's the way the world has gone though hasn't it? Like I read somewhere that single men aren't allowed in family theme parks on their own incase they're paedos, that's outrageous if it's true

Maybe there's a criteria of how paedo-y they have to look? Sort of a scale from 1 to Rolf Harris, and any hint of a trenchcoat is an automatic life time ban.

That said... who WOULD actually go to a theme park alone... that's one of the saddest things I've ever heard

. And I actively like going places alone like the cinema / shopping / for lunch and coffee etc... but a theme park?

Yeah I know

But still, if that rule was there for women only there would be uproar
