Jazz Bornean Orangutan

July 2009
I would visit Dudley, but cant stand the thought of seeing the orangutans in such horific enclosures
 
I'd say it's stark, I don't like running down my local zoo, but this is one place I hate to look at as well. It's just a horrible old building that can't be pulled down (sadly), with a crappy climbing frame and not a hint of greenery anywhere.
I know that the Orangs are the number 1 priority for the zoo, this really can't come fast enough as it's an eyesore and then there will be almost no reason to complain about the zoo.
 
they've got the probelm that it is grade 2 listed because of the moat, because it is a certain way they laid down the concrete
 
Whoever laid it has got a lot to answer for these days, hope the zoo keeps its word and does something very soon.
 
it is bad, put some time in the near future they are hoping to move them

They have been saying this(with variations) for about thirty years now and still nothing happens. Having said that, 'Jaz' looks in very good condition, not fat and with a good coat of hair despite the dismal concrete enclosure.
 
They should really let Azimat have another chance to breed by putting her with 'Jorong' as she isn't too old- its the older male 'Ben' who is a failure breedingwise and she will never breed again while she is with him.
