Not sure if this is the right place to ask, since it's not a combination, but what do you think of multiple Fennec Foxes together like two males and two females? Or do you think it's better just to keep one male and one female?

It absolutely works, I've seen all kinds of combinations regarding them. What I wouldn't do is like one male and two females etc.

Would Redeye Piranhas and Orinoco Crocodiles work?

^The crocs would probably try to feast on the piranha, also the piranha would try to nip at young crocs which would be bad for such an endangered animal

Speaking of crocodilians, would broad snouted caiman and manatees work?

I would say yes, but you need multiple areas in the water where only the camain can be, like a side pond, or a mass of logs and thicker branches, or a shallow area that goes back to deeper water. You also need to make sure the manatees can't have a chance of beaching themselves, and caiman are good climbers so you could have a raised land area bordering the shore. Overall, broadsnouted caimans are quite small compared to manatees and would merely swim away from the overly curious manatees if threatened.

Can you keep Olive Baboons in an exhibit with Ostriches and large Hoofstock, like Wildebeest and Giraffes?
Olive baboons are quite aggressive, specially the males and they are known to eat calves and chicks of different species. I've seen hamadryas baboons mixed with African elephants and olive baboons mixed with hippos and white rhinos both in very large enclosures, the key to a successful mix with them lies on the size of the enclosure and the size of the other inhabitants. I hope it helps you.

Could Musk Oxen and Caribou live together in a large enclosure?

The enclosure I've built is very large, they'd have room to spread apart in the exhibit. They've also got backstage outdoor areas as well as indoor housing.

1. Marabous and African Hoofstock (Wildebeest, Zebra, Buffalo, Giraffe, Gazelle). Given that if there is a separate holding pen for them.
2. Spotted Hyenas and Vultures.
3. Avocets and Curlews?
4. Meerkats and Crested Porcupines?
5. Macaws and Toucans?
6. Bottlenoses and False Killer Whales?

I'm not slow! That's just my moe!

I've seen bottlenose and false killers together in events and performances, but they need to have separate living areas.

And be careful with macaws and toucans, it'll depend heavily on the disposition of the toucan(s).

Could I put American Robins and Baltimore Orioles together in an aviary? Or should I keep them separate?

When they aren't breeding, this should be okay.

Could razorbills be kept with Atlantic puffins and a pair of king eiders?

Also, are there any other Australian birds that could be kept in a walkthrough aviary with rainbow lorikeets?
