A tree would be possible indeed, but groundfoliage would be tramped by the rhinos.

Yes that is the one xD

Can anybody give me good reference pictures for a pangolin exhibit? I already search in google, zoolex and zoochat.

I know they are arboreal and nocturnal, but i'm without inspiration and i need to build them a home in my zoo xD
Maki made a good one. Look in one of maki's zoos.
Yes i remember the one Maki did, but is not what i want to do for my zoo. I want to see to real life pangolin enclosures. I can't find useful pics.

A realistic pangolin enclosure is solely indoor. It‘s best to darken the pics, since they are nocturnal and if it‘s light the animals would never come out. I‘d add some pole structure, some bamboo and some ground foliage. Exhibit shouldn‘t be too large and I think it‘s best to separate male and female outside breeding season.

Yes i already found that pictures and i don't like any of those enclosures and one of those it can't be made ingame.

And Stephen for what i've seen in the San Diego zoo the pangolin has an outdoor section too and i want to do that. An exhibit with indoor and outdoor sections.

Edit: and i don't really care about realism xD I want to make a nice exhibit for them to live in. I don't want it to be small or only indoors.

I don't know xD I don't want a close aviary like chach did ( i hate closed enclosures). I want the outdoor section to be kind of large enough for the pangolins, and with foliage... not just a few grasses. I will make climbing structures, but i don't that to be the only thing in the exhibit, and i want that some of those climbing structures to be trees (like the chinese pine from WC). I read pangolins in captivity like water so i also want enough place to make a pool for them. I want the outdoor conected to an indoor shelter and the indoor shelter to have to section... a playing section with climbing structures and another section with sleeping dens. The indoor building have to look like a nocturnal exhibit :P

Something around those lines :P
