Reese Witherspoon's father hospitalised after poolside incident in Nashville: Report
There have been a lot of negative reactions to the video, people were quick to point out the parent's reckless endangerment of his child. As one comment pointed out "What!? No, how could you think that? How could they have know that a wild animal was going to act like a wild animal".
Others compared the incident to that of Harambe, a gorilla at the Cincinnati zoo who was shot and killed after a three-year-old boy climbed into his enclosure. Fearing the child's safety a zoo worker killed Harambe.
"What sucks is that the kids are innocent, young, and didn't know better. The parents will call the animals "vicious," and the animal will probably get put down. Kid gets used for social media clout and lawsuit money. Animal gets Harambe'd."
