Out of all animals they'd chose the most dangerous bird in the world to pet.
Stupidity comes in two ways. Both from the zoo for not placing the barriers far enough to keep away idiots like them from the animals and of course, from the idiotic couple themselves.
@TinoPup Seems like it. I'm surprised the USDA inspection said nothing about the lack of a stand off barrier. Oh wait the USDA APHIS can only inspect mammals. Got to love weak laws like that.
