Because a gorilla, especially an angry full grown male silverback, could tear a man in two quite easily. If I was going to shoot one I would not want it to have a minute or two after being shot before it fell over.

Safely tranquillised, back in, everyone safe, all fine.

Whew.

I wonder what the hell happened? That surely ought to be a 'never' event.

They had police marksmen there, they could potentially have put a vet up in a chopper with the tranq if they'd needed to - obviously you don't wanna play hide and seek with the thing, but the ultimate success in tranquilising it clearly shows it could be safely done, they (rightly) wouldn't have even considered it if they didn't know they could do it without getting the vet dismembered...
