Resumen del Editor

Among the great apes, orangutans are the mystery primates. People are familiar with chimpanzees and gorillas, but the reclusive orangutan is far less well known or understood. Zoos, however, are directing more attention to orangutan captive management. In fact, the zoos in North America consider their captive orangutans one population and have developed a species survival plan. Producer Neenah Ellis visits the orangutans at the National Zoo in Washington, DC, and orangutan experts at Zoo Atlanta to understand captive management and the role that zoos are playing in keeping the endangered orangutans alive.
