SHAME ON INDONESIA - AND THAILAND
INDONESIA'S - AND THAILAND'S SHAME
When Harry Santosa of the Indonesian Ministry of Forestry suggested offering 11 orangutans on breeding loan to Thailand, we wonder if this was the kind of zoo he has in mind? In case you are wondering about the skyscape photo – it is the view tourists can see from the same floor in this departmental store, downtown Bangkok, where the orangutans are held in truly terrible conditions. Depressing as this view is, the orangutans cannot see it – theirs is a life behind bars in dungeon-like conditions.

Bangkok hell for orangutans - and other animals.
These orangutans are held in horrific conditions on the 6th and 7th floors of a departmental store in central Bangkok.They barely see daylight. These photos were taken during the daytime. They never feel the warmth of the sun or cool rain drops on their backs, never catch the breeze on their faces, never see a branch – let alone a tree, etc.
Young orangutans are also forced to ride bicycles and perform other degrading acts seven days a week, 365 days a year.
