National Zoo - Orangutan O-Line

July 2008.

Does this go over a public pathway or something? I guessed it might due to the hotwire.

yup, the O-line actually crosses a couple of public pathways.

That's cool. Bet the keepers have fun rounding them up at night.

There are 8 of the massive towers, and the orangs constantly go directly over the heads of zoo visitors and can cover a good chunk of the zoo in the process. There are "orang x-ing" signs up in case one of the apes plans to deposit something on the ground...haha. My wife and I watched the orangs for an entire hour and it was amazing!
