Question about "mixing"

[Amne]

Does anyone, or has anyone, found out information regarding mixing the habitats with different animals, just for fun that is?
As you were able to do in Zoo Tycoon 1 & 2, as a kid I loved putting a Lion inside a Zebra pen and see what happened, or even letting the Lion loose for it to chase the visitors!

Any news regarding that?

animals will not attack guests that much has been confirmed... the guests will still run away from escaped animals but the animals will never attack the guests...

however we still do not know if the predators will eat/attack their prey if put into the same enclosure...

we do know that animals can be mixed together and some animals are actually happier being mixed with other animals.

On that second point, we do know that a prey animal will not like being housed with a predator. Whether it is just uncomfortable or gets killed remains up for debate.

Currently we have seen the following animals mixed together:
- Zebra and Black Wildebeest
- Springbok and Giraffe
- Giraffe and Hippo

I think it can be safely assumed that most herbivores can probably be housed with most other herbivores, assuming all other needs are met.

I would enjoy a blood & gore dlc for those who want to play around more while also making it optionable for those who want to keep it nice and clean.

No hyrbids are not confirmed and will probably not happen

Also they did say that predators will sometimes fight other predators and predators will hunt prey
