I do wonder if the Orangutans will EVER leave these enclosures- the plans to do so keep falling down (so will this house one day.)

The enclosure isn't too bad in terms of exercise. though I have read cases of them falling down. The exhibit set up here in Melbourne though is really great. And the way Singapore has made their Orangutans live is even better.
