orangutan exhibit in 70's

orangutan exhibit, first pictures of the exhibit. Dr Thomas wanted a lot of water so the orangutans would stay in the tree, he said they would go into the water. First day a young one waded accross the pond, second day he dragged a younger one accoss the water almost drowned him, and on the third day he took a rubber feed disk and put it on his head and sat under the waterfall - on the forth day I think Dr Thomas sent him to another zoo - could be just a rumor.
