It's known that the zoos top priority was to save the child. By tranquilizing him he could have reacted badly and killed the boy. There were a many number of methods in which the keepers could have attempted to get the big out without harming the gorilla.
He was showing no aggressive behavior - he was actually protecting the boy. However he is super humanly strong and dragging the child posed a threat to his safety. Even if he meant no harm his help could hurt. This is why the zoo keepers couldn't wait and took the drastic action of killing the gorilla.
This is all done with the child as the top priority.
happen to have the unpopular opinion:
I feel that the gorillas life is more valuable than the child's. The gorillas death is more devastating than the potential injuries and possible death of the child.
Gorillas are critically endangered. Homo sapient are not. The gorilla should have lived.
