Would you put any water (like a small stream or lake) in a Sulawesi Babruisa's exhibit?

I would probably put some water in, but then I put water in most of my exhibits.

Thanks Chalico, and how deep would you make it? As I'm not 100% sure they swim... mainly just wallow IIRC

you can add a shallow pool, but more important is that they should have an area for mud baths.

I know it is, but I've seen much of them walking on logs like these, so I decided to make some :P

I don't think that indoor exhibit is suitable for a secretary bird to be honest. They live in open grasslands or savannahs. They won't be confortable in such a croweded exhibit. I think if you are going to do an indoor exhibit for them, it shoul be just a simple shelter where they can rest, with almost nothing on it.

Well, they live in open grasslands/savannahs, so I guess it'd be fine if you just deleted some logs and spread the foliage out a bit.

Concrete or hay, I guess. Haven't really seen any other substrates.

I'm not sure if its possible in zoo tycoon 2, but I've seen gorilla exhibits that use sawdust, but then again I don't know if you can get saw dust in ZT2 xD
