Yeah. The anaconda I'm talking about must be a small one, because he's pretty stretched out when I see him. But I can understand the sizes thing. Just reminds me of how the exhibits need some TLC

Probably because they live in similar areas. Could've also been one of those weird decisions the devs took that make no sense otherwise
Coyote none
Sheep: Bison, pronghorn, prairie dog and peccary seem reasonable
Rhea: Tapir, capybara, anteater, lama, alpaca, maybe armadillo and maned wolf?
Saki: Probably the same as the capuchin, so tapir, capy, peccary, anteater, aswell as the cpauchin itself
Flamingo: Capybara and tapir for sure
It's recomended to not mix animals that create they own borrows (like merkats and prairie dogs) with big ungulates because theres a chance the ungulates might get stuck or break they legs thanks to the borrows, i think thats why.
I have heard that it is not recommended for slender-legged lightweight ungulates to mix with burrowing animals like prairie dogs, because there is a high risk of them misplacing a foot into a burrow and falling and breaking a leg.
Ah, I see. And I guess the bison are not concerned because they have bigger legs?
Don't encourage them. They'll never stop
I think it just doesn't make sense period
Bisons mixed with prairie dog is actually an real thing, at least some zoos have those two together.

I agree the bison shouldn’t have it with the prairie dog imo
Some places do successfully mix bison and prairie dogs - like this display that was/is at Whipsnade Zoo. I guess it depends partly on the size of the enclosure and number of prairie dogs - most places I have seen may keep them adjacent to each other without keeping them together, so there may still be concerns about tripping hazards. There is also the fact that, in the wild, bison do tend to naturally gravitate towards prairie dog towns where the grass is richest, so that may have been what prompted their interspecies bonus.
That just looks like a wild prairie haha
The "North American Great Plain" biome feels like Bison is desperately trying to hang out with his old pal Pronghorn and Prairie Dog, but they hate each other since the former destroyed the latter's house and broke his leg in the process so now everytime the room is either dead silent or they fall into a screaming contest. Meanwhile, Peccari drinks one beer and then pretends he has to work early tomorrow but actually he's gonna join the last party thrown by his Latin friends at Capybara's place (by the time he arrives, Capy is already drunk and twerking on someone's head).
The area of the display tank is definitely sufficient, 16 square meters is comparable to a bedroom.In fact, except for those with body sizes similar to those of adult Komodo dragons, current display tanks are absolutely sufficient for most amphibians and reptiles.
Here’s another suggestion:

Would love to see __ finally making it into game
That would be my dream outcome. Alligator snapping turtle and black howler.
I would love a Alligator Snapping Turtle, easily one of my most wanted reptiles.
