    Ken Allen absolutely helped public perception of orangutans and other apes. At a time when apes were still widely considered dumb beasts, a super intelligent ape is born, outsmarts humans, and proves to be calm and collected when he could easily kill everyone. The guests take note and see similar patterns in other animals and a newfound cultural appreciation is born.

    Y'know, there was a peacock in Philadelphia who had a similar story.
    The peacock exhibit had no top, since the zookeepers had assumed peacocks couldnt fly.
    They were... mostly right, but this one fella was able to loop around in his pen, and gain enough airtime to go OVER the walls. She then proceeeded to just... explore. Nobody was attacked, no property damage. She just looked other cages, and sat down near the monkeys to watch them go. She was found trying to get back in her pen once the keepers got to her.
    She had done this a couple times before, apparently, with slightly more violent results. She just knocked everything nearby down.

    Orangutans really are extremely intelligent animals. During my college years I worked at a wildlife park in Borneo one summer, it had semi-wild Orangutans that roamed freely, but they were so use to humans they might as well have been tame. I ran a small stand where we sold tourists drinks, snacks etc. Noticed one day an orangutan seemed to be interested and stood there for a couple hours just watching people pay money and get snacks. I hear someone at the counter, turn around to see this Orangutan plop a pile of leaves on the counter, look at me and point toward the snacks. It was obvious he had figured out the concept that he could trade "pieces of something" for food and drinks. (and yes, I handed him some fruit juice and crisps, hey I figured if he had figured out the concept of commerce and money he deserved that much).

      Not really, they are solitary animals and have one of the slowest reproduction cycle in nature (one offspring every 8-10 years), and infants are dependant on mum anywhere from 6 - 8 years. They just want to chill on treetops and eat fruit, their lives are spend foraging and nesting; they are the gardeners of the rainforest.
      Chimpanzees would probably be my guess, they have very complex social structures, are quite violent (and omnivorous), and are social apes. Gorillas and Bonobos are social too, but they are much chiller as well; so chimpanzees would essentially replace humans if they want to spread out of Africa.
