Just search for "name of the animal" husbandry guide ing Google and most of the common animals have one of this xD

I always use this and wikipedia to make my fact sheets. You have all the info about how the exhibit should be in there. I always select what i think is useful because not everything that says in there is important for us (for example how many kilos of food a hippo need or the hight of the fences or stuff like that).

But they are really awesome. I was thinking about doing a "Resource topic" for the AE so people can use the info in this manuals. I will have to look for several manuals so it might take some time.

No problem xD

Actually my idea is that everyones fact sheet can be as complete as possible. So if people can use the husbandry guides will be great. Unfortunally a lot of people only write one or two sentences in their fact sheets. I really want to edit some of the already made fact sheet but i think that could be taken as an offense to the ones that originally made them so i won't do it XD

But yeah i think i'm going to create a topic for this kind of resources.

I have made a new exhibit with indoor and outdoor parts, any suggestions about it? Oh, I nearly forgot - which animal/s would be good for that exhibit?

Looks good for a primate or small cat exhibit to me.

For semiaquatic animals the only ones i can think of you already did exhibits for them in the past: tapirs, hippos, crocodiles.... maybe you can try seals, penguins or capybaras?

For capybaras i made a fact sheet in the AE and i also made an exhibit for them in my zoo (i think that part of my S&T is in Gaia not here)
