In Hayes v Zoological Society of Cincinnati,Hayes was demoted and then fired after reporting dangerous conditions at the defendant zoo and then testifying for Stober,a fellow employee injured at the zoo.She sued based on retaliation.The court found:
A) for the Zoo because Hayes was not a zoologist and therefore not qualified to judge whether conditions were safe or not regarding wild animals.
B) for the zoo because the injury to Stober, Hayes's fellow employee resulted from her assumption of risk and contributory acts by trying to feed a grape to a bear.
C) for Hayes because the Federal Whistle-Blower Act expressly provided protections for employees dealing with institutions directly dealing with the public and the zoo could not justify the demotion and firing independent of retaliation.
D) for Hayes because she reported safety violations that could harm members of the public as covered under Ohio law and the zoo could not justify the demotion and firing independent of retaliation
