*writes down Orang/Tapir combo*

I too have seen Orangutans with gibbons, usually Siamangs but I really don't think species matters.

As for the Bawean Deer, not sure if you'd combine them or not. I haven't seen them personally, but I have seen both Hog Deer and Calamian Deer, close relatives. The Hog Deer were in SDZSP's Asian Savanna, along with Gaur, Banteng, Rhinos, Swamp Deer, Sambar, Chital, Blackbuck, Urial, and Mouflon. The Calamian Deer were at LA, and were kept to themselves but in a fairly large-ish herd. I suppose it just depends on what you're going for.

I've seen lion tailed macaques with orangutans.

OH YESSS!

I've been mixing the Savannah herbivores since the very beginning of my ZT2 days. I just never had the chance to make a similar map that mixes in the carnivores with them as well.

Something way out of my league of knowledge: Could Purple-necked Rock Wallabies be combined with Emu? I've seen lots of Emu/Red Kanga and an Emu/Red Kanga/Red-necked Wallaby combo, but then I've never seen rock wallabies (the specific species I've seen being the Yellow-footed Rock Wallaby) combined... I'm horribly confused and for once need some help xD

^ ironically, I can help with that one. It should be fine, neither is exceptionally "warm blooded" in the sense that neither will be overly aggressive or anything.

IIRC when I made the FS about YN rock wallabies, I read of a zoo that kept them with emus and other animals, however the wallabies were always staying on the rocks, away from the other animals.

Ah, okay, that's what I figured the case'd be. Now to edit the enclosure slightly for them xD

You can easily exhibit them with other macropods, especially wallabies, but I would avoid any Petrogale species (risk of them breeding with each other). Emus are fine, so would be Australian Brushturkey. I think one zoo in Australia exhibit Rock-wallabies with non-agressive waterfowl species : small lake, lakeside, grassy paddock, huge boulders and rocks, everyone is happy. ;)

Could Waterbuck, sable antelope, and Masai giraffes work well together

Well you'd have to be careful. Large antelope have and will hurt one another both intentionally and accidentally, so it's best to have a spacious enclosure.

would red pandas and microraptor work in an exhibit with mixed temperate forest and montane trees?
Exhibit description:
tree examples: Himalayan pine/oak, Chinese temperate forest tree that starts with an s and is in an AD foliage pack, box elder
also bamboo, climbing platforms, elevated food dishes

thick-ish foliage distribution with room for gliding

I highly doubt they'd interact in a good way. They're both in an awkward size range that it's just best to no do so. Plus Microraptor was truly volant so it'd be hard to contain them already.

Not to mention stress on both.
