A woman in Texas was filmed trying to feed spider monkeys after climbing into an exhibit at the El Paso Zoo.

The video shows the woman under a waterfall throwing food at two monkeys, before climbing out of the exhibit.

After footage surfaced on social media, the Lovett Law Firm where she worked, fired her saying her behavior was "irresponsible and reckless." Zoo officials also plan on pressing charges.
