  • A dog was safely removed from inside of a gorilla enclosure at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park on Sunday. The scary moment was captured on camera by CBS 8 viewers visiting the park.
    After entering the enclosure, the shepherd was quickly spotted by a gorilla inside the exhibit. Desteniey Pickett told CBS 8 her family noticed the dog running around distressed as the gorilla began to chase it around the enclosure.
    Picket said no zookeeper was around when they noticed the dog and guests began to seek help. She said visitors began to gather around the enclosure and yell the gorilla's name, attempting to distract it from the scared dog.
    San Diego Zoo Safari Park staff were able to safely remove the shepherd from the exhibit.
    The San Diego Human Society told CBS 8 that at around 6:00 p.m., three SD Humane Society humane officers responded to the incident.
    “As soon as zoo staff saw the dog, they moved the gorillas out. Our Humane Officers were able to move in and safely leash the shepherd and bring him back to our Escondido Campus for evaluation,” the SD Humane Society said.

    Silver back seemed very curious. Probably never seen a dog. As long as the dog wasn't barking or growling aggressively the gorillas didn't seem threatened. But their sheer strength alone would make play dangerous for poochie.

      I bet the dog would have cowered and rolled over if the silver back caught it or got real close to it. Maybe the silver back would not have hurt the dog. Glad we didn't find out.

    "adoption waiting list" so good to hear. I have a 9 month old shepherd/husky mix and she can run like the wind. She can change directions in a micro second and jump to another position very quickly. Id be horrified if she found herself in this situation but I believe she would put up quite a chase. She wouldn't challenge them or growl at them but just keep her distance. Plus she is tireless. I'd like to believe she would be rescued.

    The observers were making way too much noise. The gorillas could probably pick up on the tension and the ruckus surely didn't help in keeping the gorillas calm. If people wanted to help they should've stayed calm. It was a good decision that the zoo staff kicked all of them out.
