There were videos of people drinking and dancing right next to a dozen flashing ambulances. I don't think that kind of protocol would work, even in Korea.

(Also most people grossly underestimate this kind of danger - by the time someone in the center realizes they're in trouble, it would be too late.)

For all they knew, 3 people had alcohol poisoning and 5 more had cuts and bruises from a fight or whatever.

I doubt any animal of any species, if they were aware of their own kind being killed in large numbers nearby, would not shut up and pay close attention for the sake of their own safety if nothing else...
