It's live TV everyone, don't say f*ck or bugger!

While filming a segment for Canadian TV on Toronto's CITY-TV Breakfast Television show, Bowmanville Zoo director, Michael Hackenberger, was caught swearing angrily at a misbehaving monkey, prompting online calls for a boycott of the zoo. Austin the baboon, who was being led around on the back of a miniature pony (as monkeys are obviously known to do), jumped off mid-display, angering Hackenberger who swore under his breath, with his lapel mic picking up every charming word. "F*ck you, you c*cksucker..." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zX96RBUlWLY Following a backlash about the incident online, Hackenberger later released the below statement about the unfortunate f*ckin' incident. Austin the baboon, however, could not be reached for comment at this time... https://twitter.com/Shawn_Jeffords/status/637420878150635520?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw
