Stressed animals?

[Sexcellent]

Hi,

I'm new to this game and just working through the tutorials. I'm currently in the Asian Panda Park and my tapirs and okapi have gone wild. I don't think any of them have given birth, but they're suddenly all incredibly stressed out. They're information shows "severe social welfare concerns" but the number of animals in their group is at 100%?

They may be afraid of people and need cover/barriers that block their view of people.

Thank you, I changed a couple of glass panels to one-way and that seemed to help a bit!

Noise from guests can also be a factor. Under Facilities -> Security, there are Do Not Disturb signs that will prevent ppl from making too much noise

You can put a bigger place to hide or more places to hide in their enclosure and as mentioned a 'do not disturb' sign can help too

Tapirs...
One male and/or one female only?
habitat is in the green?
Nutrition is in the green?

It's one male and female together with 1 offspring
Yes all green, only thing in red is "stress" under social, but social is green?

The way to deal with that is to have more space between the path and habitat and use screening devices. Those would be plants or one way glass. Also it sometimes helps to have a little more room in those habitats regardless of the info saying they have enough space. Also note that as the young are about to mature stress goes up as well as when they mate. Yes the quiet signs do help a fair bit as well.
It is not uncommon for stress to just randomly occur as well.
Best to check the zoopedia to see if an animal is shy and to place those away from main paths.
