Zoo worker in gorilla suit shot with tranquiliser dart during 'escape drill' because no-one told the vet it wasn't real



A vet shot a tranquiliser dart at zoo employee dressed as a gorilla after mistaking him for a primate


The 35-year-old zoo employee was shot on Monday at Loro Parque Zoo on the Spanish island of Tenerife.


Staff at the zoo were taking part in a drill designed to ensure they had an emergency plan in place in case one of the gorillas escaped its enclosure.


But the vet had not been informed of the training exercise, and fearing that there was a gorilla on the loose he sprang into action, according to La Opinión de Tenerife and shot the poor b*st*rd in the leg.


You have got be f*cking kidding me!!!... I bet he didn't go to Specsavers.


Rant over
