18-Month-Old Toddler Plays with 300-Pound Gorilla

A newly-released video showing an 18-month-old girl playing with a 300-pound gorilla is drawing outrage from many parents. The video, during which the gorilla picks up the little girl and carries her around, is actually 22 years old but was just released for the first time. The man who released the tape was hoping that it would show the gentle nature of the animals, but has instead sparked much criticism about whether it’s safe to allow a child so close to a wild animal.
