Pygmy Hippos in mixed exhibits

Taman Safari Bogor have an pygmy hippo in the moat of an exhibit for Sumatran orangutan. The hippo practically couldn't directly interact with the orangutans or even enter their island, since it's quite elevated from the water. The hippo have their own small piece of land on the corner.

Montgomery Zoo mixes them into their African savanna exhibit. I'm not sure what is in there now, but they've been mixed with giraffes, ground hornbills, bonteboks, Grant's zebras, slender horned gazelles, greater kudus, dama gazelles, crowned cranes, and marabou storks at one point.
