Regardless of how this child will turn out in the future I believe the parents are the ones to blame for this. 7 frickin' years old!! I mean, I grew up out in the country so I was out playing in the woods, but I always had big brother or sister watching me. I'd like to know how he broke into the zoo. Or even how he had the thought to do it in the first place. Perhaps he has older siblings??

Poor animals, and poor child.
