Knife-Wielding Gorilla Shocks Zoo Visitors

There are a few questions that you never want to hear. Do you know how to make a tourniquet? And who gave the gorilla a knife? Unfortunately for the Calgary Zoo staff, they had to answer the latter. Zoo visitors were shocked to see a gorilla holding a knife and pointing it at a fellow gorilla. "He grabbed the knife exactly in the correct position and he smelled it and looked at it. A few seconds later, another gorilla came and he was very interested. He tried to get the knife, but the gorilla with the knife lifted the knife for his buddy....It seems to me that the gorilla with the knife was a little bit angry, and he lifted his hand with the knife. It was just a scene from a crime," said Calgarian Joe Scheffler, who was at the zoo with his wife.

That's how we roll

Actually what really happened is this... Every year Calgary holds "The Calgary Exhibition and Stampede" (it's the GREATEST OUTDOOR SHOW ON EARTH GUYS! All the marketing tells me so!). Millions of people visit the city, and things get out of hand real fast, drunk tourists, cows escaping and roaming the streets, hay bales tripping innocent victims, etc etc. The city implemented a new safety procedure this year whereby all children, seniors and animals are to be trained in self defense in case of riots and/or
