Critics ask why the Swedish zoo shot the chimpanzees instead of tranquilising them.
A zoo in Sweden has been criticised for shooting dead three chimpanzees and injuring another after they escaped their enclosure.
The incident began at around noon on Wednesday when the chimpanzees got out of their enclosure and began roaming freely around the zoo.The zoo is currently closed for the season so members of the public were not present, but zoo officials said the escaped animals still posed a threat and staff were evacuated or ordered to stay indoors.
"This, combined with the fact that it can take up to 10 minutes before the anaesthesia appears, would pose great danger to human safety," the statement said.
