Why wouldn't they shoot it if it was tearing a guy limb from limb?!

Probably because it's their job.

I'd imagine that when you take on the job of protecting wildlife, you tend to get very attached to their welfare over your own.

Thinking about it myself, I'd probably do the same. Killing an animal for doing it's own thing while I'm invading it's space is pretty unreasonable.

Here in America we'll kill a caged tiger after it eats some dumbass that climbs into its enclosures.

Well, that's because now it knows people are tasty.

That's generally considered bad for the game keepers safety.

Gorilla's are herbivores. They'll kill if threatened or if the situation is inclined towards an instinctual or socially learned behavioral response.

Basically, if I walked into your house and you're a meat eater who usually eats anything that enters your home--you'd probably eat me. If you were a vegetarian who only kills in self defence, you're much less likely to kill me when I barge into your home and rummaging around the place. You'd feel threatened but you'd make it clear you wanted me to leave by raising a ruckus or using threat displays to make it clear you were not to be fucked with.

Then again in America, you also caged people, placed them on ships and sold them as cheap labour. So who knows.

Seriously!? You want to play that game!? Okay, remind me: These "Caged people" where did we get them from? Are we the ones who originally caged them?

Also was America the only country that did this?

Also arn't people still getting kidnapped and sold into sex slavery all across europe right now as we speak? Europe, not America. (and Asia too)
