Hang on Marylene et al. This does not seem to me to be about stereotyping at all, since the qualities are not being ascribed to species but to the members of those species residing in the Bronx zoo. It's not ALL orang utans that are sceptical of changes in their cages!
I think that this is just a playful anthropomoprhic reflection on a day at the zoo. It's fab.
