You had better believe it.
Here in Pittsburgh several years back, a mother intentionally set her (either 2 or 4 yr old I can't recall) on top of the barricade surrounding the African wild dog exhibit so that the kid could "get a better look". The kid fell in, was mauled to death by the dogs and the family sued the Zoo--there was a "confidential settlement"
Damned if you do damned if you don't.
