As some of you might have seen, I recently started showing a new park called Vast Ocean Marine Park. Im beginning on the 2nd map and I have a few questions -

1. Can North Smooth Dolphins/Northern Right Whale Dolphins and Southern Right Whale Dolphins be kept in captivity?
2. If so, can they be kept together? (I know theyre not from the same areas, but I still want to combine them)


Thanks! :D
I don't think they have ever been kept in captivity so far in RL, but in ZT everything is possible.

Thanks OF! :D I just read Sophie's Cetacean Guide at Gaia, and only one of those species has ever been in captivity, the Northern one, and it was a rescue center. However, Vast Ocean has a rescue center also, so I might still put them in. ;)

Like i always say... check the Animal Encyclopedia. I made a fact sheet about lions that is pretty complete, including how the night dens should be: http://w11.zetaboards.com/The_Round_Table/topic/9065827/1/#new

The two species dont live near each other, but I suppose you could probably put them together. I dont know if I would in my zoo, but they could probably coincide. ;)

I think is better if you keep just one species or mix it with some other animal to add more variety to the exhibit.

I think they can. I usually mix them with wild turkeys, but you can mix them with white tailed or mule deers i guess.

And Nils the mouse deer exhibit looks nice although i'm not a fan of the brick fences, they kind of take away the natural feeling that you acomplished with the foliage.

About the aviaries i can't say much from that picture, but the foliage is looking good.

Bison can be kept with animals such as Elk, Pronghorn, Moose and Turkey. :)

@Zoocrazy: I know, but I just like the brick. Besides, the brick building set is the only building set in which I added my animal corridors.
