I just didn't know if it would work. I was thinking about territorial disputes and things but I have seen videos of Tamarins together so I just asked...

Hey guys =)
I want to create a Philippine exhibit but I am unsure about the Visayan deer and pig coexistence. I know that some zoos holding them together (like Colchester) but I want to try a compromise: if I isolate a part of the exhibit with some rocks, so as to make inaccessible for the pigs?

Thanks in advance!

Could Southern Rockhopper, King, and African Penguins be combined?

The rock hooper and king would work, but the African Jack ass penguins wouldn't work well. It just doesn't make sense geographically.You could do Adele penguins though.

@Rexpony- Batty would know

As for the penguin combination, just because the geography isn't spot on doesn't mean it shouldn't/can't be done. The Calgary zoo has all three penguins combined in a complex that has a frigid indoor enclosure and a seasonal outdoor enclosure. The species rotate out so there's one species out and two in at all times

I wonder if a Geoffroy's Marmoset and a Black-and-Rufous Elephant Shrew would go together well...

Yes, definitely. Not exactly geographic at all, but I've seen very similar combinations.

A piece of toast and a terminator.

Could I put Blue-bellied rollers in a tropical aviary with birds of a similar size?

I've seen them combined with various other species, so probably yes, though I'd imagine they'd put a quick stop to any breeding attempts by other birds.

Could I combine Four-toed Hedgehog and Red-legged sun squirrel ?

what you think of this combo?

. masai giraffe, gerenuk and southern ground hornbill

i still don't know if i put the ground hornbill or other bird like guineafowl or maybe make the combo only with the giraffes and gerenuks.

@ZTFR, I don't see why not!

@Pokeruto, that shouldn't be a problem. Duisburg zoo has a pair of ground hornbills in their giraffe stable, and generuks shouldn't have too many problems with either species.
