 GabOng is an orang-utan, present habitat the Geological Park in the Bronx. Now, Gabong hasn't done anything criminal, but just the same his fingerprints are on file in Police headquarters. Furthermore, those police experts who have been in the fingerprinting job for years can't t tell at a glance the difference be- tween the prints of Gabong and his alleged human brethren.
 Raymond Ditmars, curator of mammals and reptiles at the zoo, was anxious to get real imprint of one of the orangutan's fingers.
