lions in the jungles of india? well lions already live in india but I dont think they could manage in dense jungle, they wouldnt be able to maintain prides and without that advantage would simply die out in the face of more firmly established better adapted big cats (Tigers and leopards)

wolves on the african plains.
They could outcompete AWDs, leopards, and the like.
Not sure how they'd do against lions or hyenas though.

They could not outcompete any of them, the winter is a wolf's friend. If you chose wolves big enough to compete with those animals they would be to well adapted to the cold, if you chose wolves adapted to warm weather they wouldnt be big enough and there packs would be small. Actually there are "wolves" in africa the ethopian wolf but its no more threatening than a coyote or a jackal.

I think that could work.

They might view baby or juvenile orangutans as a food but not a fully grown adult male.
A chimp would likely be intimidated by a large male orangutan.
Speaking of which, I also think chimps or gorillas could survive in the rainforests of southeast asia.

A hunting party is different from a lone chimp, there blood is running hot and find confidence in the fact that they have allies.

amur tigers in yellowstone national park might work. Why be as specific as one park? and besides they would become know as the park of borrowed animals Yellowstone: home of Canadian wolves and Russian tigers. but yes they would do fine there.

Denali, Banf, Grand Teton, Yosemite, and Glacier national parks would all be suitable habitats for amur tigers to live. (Why some people got so bitter and angry in the introduce tigers to alaska thread is beyond me)

the amur leopard could also survive in the habitats you and I just mentioned.
How about lowland gorillas in the everglades?
The young would be vulnerable but only a big gator and occasionally a bold panther might pose a threat to an adult IMO.
Black bears would likely not even bother with the apes.
I think they can survive there.
