It is illegal (i hope in that crazy country of yours) and it is too crazy for words.
Please stop abusing primates for you own egotisic goals.

Dearest Megan,
If you have to ask this question, it is evident, that as good as your intentions may be, you are not equipped to handle a great ape. These bright, emotional animals need the company of other orangs. There is a way to use your love and compassion for nonhuman primates. Just take the money you would spend for an orang and donate it instead, to one of the many primate sanctuaries, particularly to those that house former research animals. If you search the net, you will find photos of animals in research labs and you will see what I mean. Best of luck to you.
Janet

You can not personally own an orangatan....must be a zoo or lab...unless you got about 80.000 I would forget about it...
