Anyone is capable of an error in judgment. This was a horrible error in judgment.

There are something that's that you don't get a second chance at. Of all the ways to have a legitimate accident in the world, or an accident because of someone else's negligence (like drunk driving for instance) do we really need to add more (by say sitting your toddler at the top of a wild animal exhibit)?
There are also things that are so obvious everyone should get them. Like don't sit your kid ON A RAILING, ON A FREAKING WILD ANIMAL ENCLOSURE, THAT INCLUDES WILD DOGS AND A LARGE DROP.
This thing was both of those.
I may be capable of many errors in judgment, but certainly not this. Not even close. I'm hoping (praying) that most wouldn't be. But lately it seems like I would be wrong. At least when it comes to zoos.
Hey honey! Get a picture of little Nate sitting on this precarious railing overtop a fall that could possibly cripple an infant, enclosing a a pack of wild dogs! Won't that be cute!
Shoot the dog indeed... Shoot the mom.
