I know close to nothing about the behavior of extinct animals. But I am guessing that it would work.

Ok

Sumatran Rhino
Species Why Exhibit Adjustments
SiamangShouldn't bother the rhinos too muchTrees and climbing structures
Greater Mouse DeerSmall, fast, docileLogs to hide in in the case of an aggressive rhino

(The problem with having a mixed species exhibit with sumatran rhinos in they are so endangered you do not want them injured or sickened by the other animals)

Malayan Tapir
SpeciesWhyAdjustments
BinturongSmall, Can climb trees if the tapirs get aggressiveClimbing structures
Gibbons/SiamangDo not bother tapirs. Common mixed species in zoos.Climbing structures
Common MunjacSmall , Fast, DocileHiding places
Rodrigues Fruit Bat/ Fruit BatsLive in trees, won't bother tapirs although an adjustment period might be neededTrees, hanging structures


Babirusa
SpeciesWhyExhibit Adjustments
Asian Small Clawed OtterOtters will stay in water for the most of the timeWater Feature

2. Nurse sharks and Zebra Sharks
3. Great Hammerheads with Whitetip Oceanic

2) No, they don't interact in the wild
3) I would say yes as long as there are not females and male whitetips in the same tank. Great hammerheads have been known to eat grey reef sharks that are about 8-9 ft long after the reef sharks have exhausted themselves chasing mates.


2. If he doesn't follow their geographical range, they can be kept together, like Genova's aquarium does.
3. That's not necessarily true, as great hammerheads have been kept in tanks with other shark species, including smaller ones like blacktips (Georgia aquarium). just make sure the sharks are all well fed, that should reduce their aggressivity.

Question Furka: Would there be any temperature differences in the water between where the two sharks live in 2?

I am preety sure that you can mix babirusa with lowland anoa, since they are co-exist in the wild

You probably can do that. I was just going off of zoos in RL that I had seen do these combos.

Also, I said it in other topic that I heard about zoo that has (or will) an exhibit contained axis deers, lion tailed macaques, gharials and smooth coated otters. It may work well since gharials eat only fish and invertebrates.

I would just take out the otters and it sounds fine. I'll research that. It sounds like an interesting exhibit.

I also found this

This is why they are my favorite crocodilians. They are so calm and docile that I want to keep one as a pet.

They appear to live at similar latitudes, so I don't think there would be much temperature difference.

I was thinking about a Diana Monkey and any specie of Duikers?
The reason for asking is, wouldn't the relative big monkeys bother the mall Antelopes too much?

Yes.
Diana monkeys mostly live herbivourous and they live in higher levels of the rainforests than duikers. It's true that bigger monkeys bother small antelopes but I'm pretty sure not guenons. And I already saw owl-faced monkeys and Kirk's dikdiks in a zoo ;)
