Building the habitat
The land area is a hard floor: 970 m² for the enclosure itself, plus 30 m² of shelter on top. Barrier grade 4 at 2 m contains the animal without overspending on fencing you do not need.
Keep the habitat inside -15–28 °C. Temperature is one of the most common reasons a habitat quietly loses welfare, because it never triggers the alarm that hunger does.
Group limits matter more than most players expect: mixed groups run 1–2, capped at 1 male and 1 female. Exceeding the male cap is what causes fights — not total headcount.
