Building the habitat
The land area is a hard floor: 210 m² for the enclosure itself, plus 2 m² of shelter on top. Barrier grade 2 at 3 m contains the animal without overspending on fencing you do not need.
Keep the habitat inside 18–33 °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 3–30, capped at 30 male and 30 female. Exceeding the male cap is what causes fights — not total headcount.
