Milwaukee Zoo - Orangutans

Mom and baby Oragutans playing around. From Wikipedia: "The orangutans are the only exclusively Asian living genus of great ape. They are among the most intelligent primates and use a variety of sophisticated tools, also making sleeping nests each night from branches and foliage. They are generally not aggressive and live a mostly solitary life foraging for food. They are the largest living arboreal animals with longer arms than other great apes. Their hair is typically reddish-brown, instead of the brown or black hair typical of other great apes." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orangutan

The conditions the Milwuakee zoo keep orangutans in is horrific and is a breach of animal rights, these intelligent primates are restrained to an enclosed life of squalor and I am frankly sickened. The fact you put joyful music over this video also disgusted me because these scenes are far from joyful.
