Anyone getting Flying Badgers?

Anyone else having a problem where the European Badgers are showing up way outside of their habitats? (Kind of similar to the way that some of the diving/swimming animals do? Or the way that animals in quarantine sometimes appear way far away from the quarantine building)

I've got some badgers who consistently appear way on the other side of the map, and flying way high up in the air. Depending on how I click to get to them, it appears that they are counted as being inside one of the various burrows, but are appearing visually way on the other side of the zoo, and don't appear to ever be able to crawl out of the burrow. But they also aren't appearing as escaped. just translocated somehow, as if the underground burrow contains a secret portal to another spot up in the air that's still counted as part of the habitat. Even when I move the animal to the trade center and then back to the habitat, it reappears visually up in the air on the opposite side of the map, and counted as already being inside the burrow, rather than coming out of the gate/box the way they normally would.

I'm in franchise mode, so I've been able to work around this by moving the animal to the trade center, placing it into a habitat in a different franchise zoo, and then returning it to the correct zoo/habitat at a later time. This seems to reset things in a way that simply moving it to the trade center and back doesn't.

I'm going to watch more to see if there's a particular cause, since it doesn't seem to happen to every animal or every burrow. (I've got several badger habitats in this particular zoo). My most recent hypothesis is that this might be caused from moving a newly matured badger directly from a burrow to the trade center, and then when I'm ready to pair them up the calculations somehow recognize them as still being burrow-trapped when they get placed into a new habitat. And oddly, still do so even when the new habitat that they are being placed into doesn't have a burrow itself, but only above ground hard shelter. But I'm interested if others are experiencing this, or have other theories of where this might be coming from.

Unlike the swimming/diving bug, this one doesn't appear to have a time when the animal is moving across all that space. (otherwise I'd find them on a path/trajectory at various points). As far as I can tell, they're just disappearing from some burrows and appearing in some specific spots way on the outskirts of my zoo.

Anyone else experiencing this?
