They are a lot smaller than meerkats.

Basically same size
 
Tamarins would definitely be habitat animals, they are small but that doesn't really matter that much anyway considering we already got small animals (also baby prairie dogs and meerkats are even smaller and have no problem?), what defines if an animal is exhibit or not is how suitable it is to habitat mechanics, and tamarins would perfectly work with them, this kinda feels like an inverse sloth scenario xd
 
I think the thing with habitat tamarins and marmosets isnt their size in itself. I think its more the question how well they would work with the existing climbing pieces.
Yeah I used to be on Team Habitat but I've swung right around the other way. Plus their babies are the size of my thumb. They'd look stupid as hell in a habitat with absurd space requirements and giant climbing equipment.

Of course Frontier will probably avoid this question by simply not adding them.

They are the size of your thumb in the time they in real life would cling to their parents' body. A behaviour we haven't seen so far, so they would go for an older juvenile model.

Or maybe finally see a reason to do that behaviour, which could benefit several species in the game.
 
I always find this argument funny because we said the exact same thing for justify why gibbons shouldn't be in the game, and we currently have two of then.
Yeah and they werent really all that great for the first year and assumeably took a lot of work.
im not saying they cant be done or anything, just that it might be more trouble than its worth. Might be easier to just go for a bigger monkey like howlers or sakis.

Pz in general isnt really geared for the small animals since all of the enrichment items, food stuff and the habitats in itself are all so big
 
Gibbons are big.
Ok, and?
And honestly, given how little time they spend brachiating in the game, they also look kind of stupid at times.
I don't have idea of what are you talking about, every time i used gibbons they look awesome, and i would argue they are the best climbers in the game (they also brachiat a lot by my personal expirience)
 
I've actually forgotten the point I was going to make. It's 1.30am.

Not the experience most folks are having based on what I've seen (and my own experience). Sometimes they'll hang down, but they rarely swing. Most of the time they do the funky gibbon walk on top of what they should be swinging on. Brachiation should be their primary mode of locomotion while climbing, but it's like tertiary behind the bipedal run and the knuckle-walk.
 
Ill trade you gibbons, mine never seem to stop. Which is cool and all but they never use their other enrichment which was placed closer to the guests for close up view, and the guests just complain at me. Unfortunately, I thought oh, seeing Siamangs bracchiate on the opposite bank of a reflection pools would be neat, right?!. 😑

It's perfectly fine to use animals as replacement species, such as a Formosan Black Bear in place of an American Black Bear, or Chinese Pangolin in place of a White-Bellied Pangolin.

By that right, it's also totally fine to request these very same animals to fill in the roster for crucial species.
Yeah, it's just a matter of personal tolerance. Same with using mods.
