They always look so sad.
I know. That's why I tend to avoid zoos. Some years ago, when the kids were young, we went to the National Zoo in Washington, DC. There in a cage was a large gorilla like the one in Kate's excellent photo. But if anything, he looked even sadder. I thought I should apologize to him for keeping him in a cage, but there was no way to do so.

The orangutans often try to hide themselves by covering up with a piece of cloth or something.
The primary brachiators such as Gibbons are fun to watch as they go screaming around their cages.
