    Indy Zoo will be opening a new bird area in 2012. They had planned to name the new area "Islands" but now it's named: "Flights of Fancy-The Brillance of Birds".

    - do they still have plans for a orangutan exhibit or have those plans been cancelled?

    That's the strangest exhibit name I've ever heard and it's not even good.

    Yeah, that's a really strange name.

    Supposedly, the orangs are there at the zoo but in a behind the scenes holding area. The new exhibit hasn't even been built yet.
