PENANG: Trespassing into the district veterinary clinic's mini zoo proved to be a painful lesson for a 12-year-old boy when he was attacked by Madu, the zoo's resident orang-utan.  

Goh Beng Hooi, who visited the zoo in Jalan Gudwara with four friends on Sunday, had to undergo an operation at the Penang Hospital after his left foot was bitten by Madu.
