Orangutans stay in a cage in a wildlife protection
centre in Ratchaburi province, about 125 km (78 miles) west of Bangkok April 15,
2006. Wildlife officials from Malaysia, Thailand and Indonesia are scheduled to
meet on April 21 to decide the fate of dozens of orangutans which were smuggled
into Thailand nearly two years ago. Thai authorities in 2004 confiscated more
than 100 orangutans from the private Safari World zoo near Bangkok, where they
were forced to perform in daily boxing matches. [Reuters]
