There are plans for the Oklahoma City zoo to open a $23 million set of Asian-themed exhibits by 2011. The exhibit will be home to Asian elephants, greater one-horned rhinoceros, Komodo dragon, Sumatran orangutans, siamangs, sloth bears and various birds, amphibians and fish from Asia.

More info here: Asia Exhibit: Coming in 2011 - Oklahoma City Zoo

The plans look pretty good.I thought the orangutans already had a fairly new home in Great EscApe though?Oh well,maybe that would be converted for bonobo's or more room for the gorillas and chimps

Your right Zoogoer, probably they will be getting Bonobos. Milwaukee County Zoo has a lot of them, so probably they'll be moving some here.
