The gorilla, was not exactly attacking the boy and did they not have a sedative dart gun?????
 
They said they had one but felt it would not be sufficiently fast-acting.

Sounds a bit lame to me. We've all seen Wildlife Documentaries whereby even bigger animals go down within seconds of being tranquilised by dart.
 
I think it was terrible to kill Harambe, having seen some of the video available, I´m not sure he would have killed the child. That said, in his domain, who could blame him.
I just hope, if the parents try to sue the zoo, there is a big enough lawyer out there to support Harambe and the zoo, and sue the parents for negligence of a minor.

They failed in San Francisco a few years back, though it was parents of teenagers who walked away with thousands.

USDA's investigators said they found “some sticks, foreign to the exhibit, and at least one pine cone inside the tiger exhibit indicating that someone may have thrown these items into the enclosure at the tigers.”


The Dhaliwal brothers denied provoking the big cat, although Sousa's father told police that Paul Dhaliwal had admitted to being drunk and yelling and waving at the animal. Sousa's parents settled their wrongful death lawsuit for an undisclosed amount, and the brothers settled their lawsuit for a reported $900,000.


An attorney for Sousa's parents, Michael Cardoza, called the theory that the tiger was provoked “mere speculation” that would not hold up in court.


“Keep in mind these are animals, who knows why they do anything?” he said.

New camera/phone footage emerging that Harambe pulled the child away from the noise of people above where he fell, and stones that were falling from the top of the enclosure.
