This is here because . . . oh well. An effin' employee in a gorilla suit shot with a tranquilizer gun at a zoo???? :thatsright:
Man in gorilla suit shot with tranquilliser dart at Tenerife zoo
UPDATE: Zoo says man shot with tranquilliser dart at Tenerife zoo was not wearing gorilla suit (Muddy's note--if this is indeed the case, it's a lot worse. How the deuce can you shoot at a guy that's not in a gorilla suit?)
Frantic zoo keepers in Tenerife rushed to call an ambulance after a vet shot a tranquilliser dart at a man dressed as a gorilla.
Police on the Spanish island received a call from a panicked member of the public, who said that a gorilla had escaped from its pen in Loro Park zoo, and was seen running around the theme park.
A vet was called, and on spotting the creature fired a tranquilliser dart at its leg with enough sedative to fell a 200kg beast.
But to his horror, the vet - who had only been in the job for two months - realised that the creature was in fact an employee of the zoo, dressed in a gorilla suit, who was staging a mock escape to practise their emergency routines.
(Hint: They work!)

I know of a few 'individuals' I'd like to shoot up with a tranquilizer gun . . . :whistling:

Wasn't sure. I mean, how stupid do you have to be to not read a memo about a tracking drill?
