Idiots at Zoos make me feel bad for the animals. - Edit 1

I just read another article about some idiot climbing into a bear exhibit and, unsurprisingly, getting mauled. And of course, it's the bear that gets shot and then gets to spend weeks under critical care because the police used freaking fragmentation bullets (they shatter. it's not fun for the bear).

How in the world are people so stupid as to ignore huge fences and the fact that, oh, there's a big huge toothy predator behind them?? Are these people we really want to bother rescuing in the first place?

Furthermore, why the hell are the police shooting fragmentation bullets at bears??? And where are the gorram zoo vets with their tranq guns? This is half the reason zoos HAVE tranq guns!

There is a seriously lack of justice when some idiot gets himself mauled and goes home with some stitches, and the poor animal is struggling in critical care because the vets can't safely operate due to him being full of bullet fragments.
