The Dvur Kralove Zoo keeps four Bornean orang-utans (Pongo pygmaeus): male Elmar, females Zaneta and Satu, and little Besar, Zaneta's young. Their former home, the Old Pavilion built in 1984, was no longer up to the modern breeding standards. Besides, it had to accommodate also chimpanzees and gorillas, which caused various complications.
