This mixed exhibit includes five Andean bears, two Brazilian tapirs, two capybaras, Asian small clawed otters and a troop of brown capuchin monkeys

I wonder how many of these species (obviously not the Otters) ever come across each other in the wild? Spectacled bears live in Montane Cloud Forest, Capybara in marshlands and rivers, and would the Bears ever meet Tapirs or Capuchins? Just because species come from the same Continent doesn't justify displaying them together, particularly if they don't meet or associate together in the wild.
