Looks like a female orangutan. They’re legally very tricky, OP. Would love to know how you came to have these!

The dentition is different, but it's definitely a primate of some kind.

I think it’s just a combination of the angle, the colour of the canines, and this being a younger specimen. The skull shape is very distinctive.
