Bush dog - Coati enclosure

Nov. 17 2019
Interesting. I have never seen a Coatimundi and Bush dog mixed exhibit before. How is this working out and has it been tried elsewhere?
 
@lintworm thank you. May I ask why the attempt at Twycross Zoo failed?

@DesertRhino150 thank you. A mix with Bush dogs, White nosed coatimundi, and Crab eating raccoon, that is quite fascinating! How is that mix working out so far?
 
You can see on this picture the major part of the enclosure.
This exhibit was already awfull for bush dogs but it's a nightmare with coatis mixed with.
The place is far too small without any trees or vegetation.
During my last visit (2019) the coatis were alone. Not sure it runs.
 
@UngulateNerd92 The only mention I have heard of the success of the bush dog, coati and raccoon mix at Overloon is a quote that the exhibit 'goes quite well and creates lots of interactive behaviour between the species'.

The quote comes from this page, which also has a photo showing all three species together:
