Will Okapi, secreatary bird and (red) Duiker be a good combination for an exhibit? don't know if there're any RL examples so what do you think?

The entrance looks absolutely great to me, and alot of grasses and bushes perhaps for Okapi for them to hide? I always have issues with their privacy needs. |

I'd do it without the Secretary birds, since Okapis don't live in the same area as Secretary birds and don't have any similar animals. Okapis are also really sensitive and rare animals, so I could imagine that a zoo would avoid any kind of risk. Duikers shouldn't be too much of a problem though. Secretary birds would probably also cause some stress to the Duikers (and possibly even to the Okapis). EDIT: Wow, hadn't seen the entrance. It looks freaking awesome! Okapis would probably trample a lot of foliage, but some trees wouldn't hurt. My local zoo (Antwerp, which is one of the biggest zoos concerning Okapis) keeps them in a bare exhibit, but with an always accessible indoor enclosure.

Thanks I know that Antwerpen zoo has the combination of okapis and duikers. But I guess you're right about the secretary bird. |

Yep no secretary birds... they don't even live in the same biome as okapis. Okapis are very shy and private creatures. They will need a bushes or plans where to hide and i don't think they will apreciate a very crowded exhibit. I think okapis should have their own exhibit, but i don't think duikers are a bada choice i guess. They are small so i don't think it will bother the okapi. Just make a hose for the okapis and a different shelter for the duikers. The entrance looks good... but i feel it like a bit claustrophobic to be honest. I think you should maybe get rid of some of the fences in the borders and make it have a more open look, with less tight passway. But that is just my opionion. The general idea looks great. |

It looks very cool ! But I think this foliage combo is used by too many people ... Maybe try to change the trees
