Someone is bound to say .458 Lott or a .470 Nitro double. Them chimps are tough and mean.

Realistically, I think a shotgun with 00 and slugs would be perfect for responding to wild animals on the loose or attack. Lots of personal exotic pets aas well as those in zoos or rescue ranches. Plus the indigenous wild animals that might be encountered. Not too far fetched to respond to a cougar (one spotted in NE Portland), chimp, large dogs, tiger, black bear, deer, etc. A shotgun should be ideal for handling any of these animals.
