Why do people act so stupidly around wild animals? It never ends well does it?

I’ll lose every time in a rubber-neckin’ contest with a giraffe.

[”Gerald will remain at the lodge. He did nothing wrong,” Booker said.]
I agree. Wild animals take close proximity as a sign of danger to themselves. It was built-in by God.
Genesis 9:2 King James Version (KJV)
2 And the fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the earth, and upon every fowl of the air, upon all that moveth upon the earth, and upon all the fishes of the sea; into your hand are they delivered.
Nonetheless, a Seinfeld, though not a primate:
Man: He’s an innocent primate.

I don’t think the animal should be put down either, but yes Gerald did something wrong either by intent or accident.
At the very least the animal should be housed where he could not come close enough to humans to harm another one.
The animal displayed an aggressive behavior against a human. It cost the human his life.
It should be pointed out that humans have to use caution too. I would not knowingly come close enough to a large animal for it to kill me.
These shots of people treating wild animals like household pets are tragic. Even if they get away with it a few times, it encourages others to try it who won’t.

Had he only sought a close-up of a miniature giraffe instead.

To put it simply... he was head-butted by the giraffe because he invaded the animal's safe space by getting in its face trying to get a close up shot.
Live and learn.
