IF you are looking for a species to go in a mixed exhibit ask here. ![]() Let's keep stupid questions to a minimum like "tiger and mouse deer" or "butterflies and deer" EDIT 2017, by Anton; This link should help with any combinations regarding ungulates! http://www.azaungulates.org/mixed-species/

what a great idea BBBurns ![]() Do you guys think that tree kangaroos and babirusa could co-exist in the same exhibit peacefully? |

Probably not since Babirusa are rowdy pigs, and tree kangaroos are not. That being said, I've seen Red River Hog and Visayan Warty Pigs in combinations, so it may. Both of these combos occurred in zoos that held babirusa Edited by Fireplume, Nov 24 2014, 01:06 AM.

I'd suggest against it, especially Giant Otters. Neotropical maybe but they're absent from captivity so idk. |

Well... I think any of the above would work if the kangaroos had branches and such to get out of the way, which I assume they would

@Izzibob - If you put a lot of trees in and have an elevated indoor area then I think it would be ok. Some RL zoos keep binturongs with tapirs which is similar to tree kangaroos and pigs. |

It sounds alright Diablo, just make sure there is an area for the turtles to get away (slowly ) if necessary And jsut to make sure on my combos: 1. Andean Flamingos with James's Flamingos, Andean Geese, and ducks 2. Nurse sharks and Zebra Sharks 3. Great Hammerheads with Whitetip Oceanic Edited by Iron Man, Nov 24 2014, 10:51 AM.

1) Yes that would work 2) No, they don't interact in the wild 3) I would say yes as long as there are not females and male whitetips in the same tank. Great hammerheads have been known to eat grey reef sharks that are about 8-9 ft long after the reef sharks have exhausted themselves chasing mates. |

I would say no to this combo because all these animals can be aggressive at one time or another. Babirusas and Tapirs might work but just to be safe I would not combine them. |
