Can I have Fallow Deer, Indian Peafowl, Helmeted Guineafowl, Barbary Partridge, and Mallard freely roaming a zoo located in Gibraltar?

No problem for the last 4, but I would put some boundaries for the deers.

Thanks for the info. Yah if I do have the deer I will have to have some tall fence to prevent them from escaping.

Are gold-naped macaws and chestnut fronted macaw able to live in a sparse aviary with not much ground cover?

Yes, definetely. Most amcaw aviaries I have seen do not have much foliage in general since macaws destroy everthing time by time, especially small aviaries are often bare. ;)

That makes me feel better about putting them bare aviaries

I'm in doubt so I hope you can help me out. My current foliage selection is shown in screenshot 1. I find it two one-colored though, so I'm looking to add more variation. In screenshot 2 I've added a different color of the same tree. Do you think this looks better?

Looks good to me, but I would add maybe one or two more palm species of a different height. ;)

Thanks for the tip. I've downloaded some foliage and the palm tree on the left looked great to add (the one one the right was already on my PC). Also added some flowers and put some different grass between the current grass. I'm actually pretty happy with how it looks now. Only problem is that I have to remove all the foliage in my zoo (already had half the map filled...) :D

Would ferrets be an appropriate species for a barnyard section of a zoo?

Yes, but just keep them behind glass doors.

Ferrets are always a good choice! :p

But seriously, they make great ambassador/guests encounters animals and can be housed easily : glass fence, meshed fence (tiny holes only), roofed or not exhibit, as long as nothing can let them escape. Ferrets can jump 1 meter up in the air from the ground and leap 1-1m30 in front of them.
