Baby ostriches!

Hi gang,

So I got the Beta (grumble grumble cut content!) and this game even in this incomplete state is amazing, I played for hours straight!

Then I bought some fertile ostriches and boy can they breed! Before long I had a health brood of chicks then the fun began! I surrounded the enclosure by chainlink fence as this was listed under the zoopedia for these animals but the chicks simply jumped over or through this fence! The result was the hilarious situation of ostrich chicks running amok and visitors running scared! :) I tried everything even turning the fence into brick walls but nothing helped. I did check the enclosure and had the mechanic repair some openings but it didn't help. Finally I placed a large shelter at the spot they escaped from and that helped.

Later my wife laughed and explained that baby ostriches can leap/fly quite high so does this mean they need a roof too?

Thanks in advance

Yours in ostrich chasing!
 
How do you find out how high they can jump? I know this sounds dumb but the animation looks like they jump through the fence! :)
If you look up a species in the Zoopedia, it tells you how high the barriers have to be in the enclosure to keep them in. That said, I had some warthogs hop a fence that should have been okay according to the Zoopedia, so maybe add a bit extra to what it says to be on the safe side!
 
Known bug this, if there's a particular part of fence only that's causing it make it solid and no windows, this seems to fix it
