would spectaacled bears work with coatis in an exhibit
That works perfectly, also some smaller monkey species shouldn't be a big problem. (My local zoo kept the bears together with coatis and in the summer months with capuchin monkeys)
Hello, can I ask which zoo has a Spectacled bear & Capuchin mixed exhibit? I know that South Lakes Safari Park done it ... plus other species as well...

Can Chinese geese be with other animals or are they too aggressive?

You can combine them with lots of other animals :P
I've seen them with different types of waterfowl, landfowl, goats, domestic rabbits, domestic pigs, etc.
Basically with every type of kids-/petting-zoo animal you can think of ;)

I've also seen large flocks of wild geese touch down in elephant paddocks (and other large zoo enclosures) to feed. Wild geese and domestic ones don't really differ that much when it comes to character, so you can even combine that sort of thing :P

I was wondering, Could harbor porpoises and harbor seals be combined together in one exhibit? :)

I wouldn't; Harbour Porpoises are known to be incredibly shy and difficult in captivity already, I'd imagine with boistrous seals they'd not do that well :/

I am building a exhibit that is indoors. The animals are Fennec Fox, Sand Cat and African spurred tortoise. What would be a good fourth animal that is small that resides in Africa around Egypt. Thanks

Never mind I am going to go with the Egyptian Mongoose. :)

I'm not really sure if it's possible. Tiger sharks usually don't last long in captivity (as far as I can tell), and are really territorial. I'd be wary of housing them with other sharks, even. (In RL aquariums at least, not sure about in-game)

Yes, I saw one in a HUGE generic reef tank with everything from Moorish Idols to Southern Stingrays.

The Maui Ocean Center houses them with medium to large open ocean species. I recall stingray, trevallies and smaller (but not too small) sharks, like reefs.

That's pretty interesting input. I got a little too interested and started doing a bit more research on the topic (aside from general ideas based on behavior), they can be kept with rays and certain smaller fish shown by both Maui and Aquarium of the Pacific as they were saying above. I've never seen tiger sharks in captivity, apparently they're really sensitive and are hard to keep with other species. (there's only 2-3 aquariums with them in the US iirc? I know they have them at the Osaka aquarium.)

Can maned wolves and giant anteaters be mixed together in an exhibit?

Yeah they can. A handful of zoos do it in real life, and most times it looks awesome ;)

Is it okay to mix a Binturong and a Sun Bear in the same exhibit?
