Otters, babirusa and storks would not work, adventerous otters could eat eggs and take baby babirusa and storks. the babirusa may eat the eggs and baby otters. |

I think so, though there could of been intraspecific problems What about sfrican spotted necked otters and african manatees? |

When I make these charts I'm just making suggestions for a 2 way mixed species exhibit. Also I think that otters and manatees could go well together. |

Luca- I am pretty sure that the lambeos are not from the same area, though it would be hard to say if this will work. Matt- I think that this would work, but the manatees would need their own area. |

Thanks for answer. By the way as I know lambeos lived at the same place like Parasaurolophus and Corythosaurus. |

Just a hint: be very careful with otters. If the wrong species combo is created, then you'll get dead animals. A video somewhere records an incident at the Bronx Zoo awhile back, a monkey was dragged by the pack of otters and either was mauled to death or drowned. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

I watched that video. It was gruesome yet otterly adorable because there were like 12 tiny otters on the monkey, I'm a horrible person. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

@Luca: I wouldn't have more than two of those hadrosaurs together. When combining dinos I tend to combine several species occupying completely different niches in the exhibit. With three or four species of large hadrosaur conflicts are bound to happen. Also about the otters; from what I've seen otters of many species tend to be very agressive to other animals. They commonly rape baby seals, attack their keepers, and kill animals they share exhibits with, and several years ago a family of otters went to extreme lengths and slaughtered every single one of my friend's ducks. (They climbed right up the chainlink fence just to eat them!) Here's the video. Spoiler: click to toggle So yeah, I don't think otters are a good choice

My local zoo has white-handed gibbons together with Asian small clawed otters. The otters are so incredibly cute, it's weird to think they can be so aggressive o.O But I think there's probably a reason to why those otters attacked the monkey, maybe stress, lack of activities etc Oh, also, I'm pretty sure capybaras and tapirs go together nicely

1. the Permit is not found on African west coast like the ray, but the Tarpon lives on both, so I'd say it's fine to mix the tarpon with one of them. 2. possible, but since both species tend to stay very close to the floor you'd need a large tank so that there's less conflict. 3. seems fine. |
