The smaller carnivores can be housed in enclosures made from diamond mesh fencing. There should be an inward overhang or fencing over the top for serval, caracal, civet, and honey badger. Adequate shelter must be provided in the enclosure. This should preferably take the form of a night room where the animal feels secure. This can also be used to confine the animal while personnel clean the rest of the enclosure, thereby causing the least disturbance and stress to the animal.
Otters require a pool of water or a dam in which to swim.
This pool should be concrete lined with an outlet so that it can be drained and cleaned regularly. If you have no navigation at the top of the page, go HERE .
