at least recognize when people are drunk or just give up on zoo's with caged wild animals which would be best .
I recall back in the 60's while in Chicago at the Brooksfield zoo they had small vending machines where you could put in quarter and turn the knob and get peanuts to feed certain animals . A father with his two sons were tossing peanuts at a male gorilla who decided to hose down the fools with piss and that stopped that .
They did get rid of these machines and had people watch the areas to keep people in line . However back then people were not so stupid and out of control to taunt the animals , most came to see the animals .
