Idea!

This huge enclosure currently holds just 3 African Hunting Dogs. However, this enclosure is also directly adjacent to the Bornean Orang-utan House. With a change to the fencing (see Monkey World), some access tunnels and a few more climbing opportunities this could make a fantastic Orang-utan exhibit and instantly solve a long standing problem for Dudley Zoo. Anyone else?

      It's been suggested taking off part of this exhibit for the Orangs before and I believe it was even going to happen at one point, but funding has always been the issue afaik...
