I think this is a very good suggestion!

That would be an amazing idea, both realistic (there are zoos that rotate individual animals between contiguous habitats as enrichment) and practical (isolating animals to mantain sex ratios, or building indoor exhibits that act like shelters). That, and, of course, the possibility to have multiple staff gates per habitat.

I imagine the possibility depends on what triggers are being used to determine when an animal goes through the gate or not. The first thing that comes to mind would be with big cats and bears, where the male does not take part in the rearing of the offspring. So the trigger would be "babies born" which would then prompt the male to automatically move through the gate into the closed-off section of the habitat.

I also wonder if this is possible between two habitats, or if there would be some kind of special barrier we would need to use to divide a habitat in half. Either way would be interesting.
