New question, or maybe two 1. Do you can put more then one Amazon-Dolphin together in one exhibit? 2. Could you add geese or ducks to river dolphins? |

I don't know about that. The dolphins might grab the waterfowl by the feet and stress them out, and building a whole land area just for a few ducks seems pointless. |

Well the plan is a big land-part with a brook, so land won't be the problem... Another add, would a tapir or a capybara? The Tapir is easily frightened usually, and I don't know, how bothering the dolphins can be. Edit: Thanks for answering

Well, not really. They're famous for being mostly solitary, especially the males. I wouldn't try to combine anything with any cetacean, it's just asking for trouble on all ends. |

The only exception I know is the Harbour Seals/Beluga combo at the Georgia Aquarium. |

Duisburg keept for years 2 male river dolphins together, also the only other aquarium who has them keep a young male together with a older female. I don't think that tapirs or capybaras would really work, I'm also not sure about ducks, the dolphins can eat river turtles so I think they could be a little dangerous for the chicks. |

I always found this an incredibly useful guide for cetaceans. It also mentions which species can be kept together. http://w11.zetaboards.com/Gaia/topic/8125277/1/#new

I wouldn't keep them with birds who swim often (for example ducks) but if you don't hold them together it should work fine. |
