@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.
There are gerenuk and ground hornbills combined at the Fort Worth Zoo, so it's a definite combo.

Could Scarlet Ibis, Blue-Winged Macaws, and Hyacinth Macaws all live together alright?

Yes, as long as they're in a large enough aviary.

Hyacinth Macaws are usually kept by themselves I think, although that's probably because they are endangered.

Could capybaras, black necked swans, James flamingo and Orinoco geese be kept together?

Orinoco geese are very aggressive during breeding season, especially the males, so make sure that they don't breed or that they are separated from the others when they are breeding.
The rest should work well.

Is it okay to mix Pyjama Sharks, California Sheepshead, Kelp Bass, and Puffins?

It would be a pain in the ass to make an aquarium/aviary in one. You'd need areas of land and flying space for puffins, plus swimming/diving space for them and all the fish. It would be easier just to have them seperate.

Oh, I was afraid you'll say, "The sharks would eat the puffins, so don't try this combination"

Could I make an American wetland enclosure with moose, beaver and sandhill cranes?

Also, I know there's no real reason to combine them, but could red pandas, armadillo and wallabies be combined if all had their own spaces to get away? I've seen wallabies combined with capybara, Mara, emu and plenty of others and I don't suspect the other two would be overly aggresive

Sorry if this sounds dumb but what about Grizzly Bears and Canadian Geese in the same exhibit?

I wouldn't risk it. I've seen many videos of chicken or geese or ducks ending up in bear enclosures and getting killed, even pandas let alone a grizzly

I don't see why the moose, crane, beaver combination couldn't work. As long as the beavers have lots of space to swim and the moose can roam in areas away from the cranes you should be fine.

I wouldn't risk grizzlies either, but American black bears are a more viable option.

American black bears are also known to attack even humans...

Unless you have a gigantic flock in which it really doesn't matter if some get predated on, I'd stray from putting waterfowl with any carnivora, haha.
