I have a feeling that Gerald Durrell described this exhibit in "The Stationary Ark". He referred to a zoo on the West Coast of America that had made excessive use of concrete, and described the Orang enclosure as being "a monstrous concrete bidet".

I remember reading Mr. Durrell's book many years ago. And yes, I believe he was possibly referring to this exhibit.
