Can i have 2 animal mods in minecraft?

I recently started playing minecraft and came across different mods and the ones that interest me are Mo Creatures and Animals+, but the thing is I want all the animals, for example I want whales which are not on one mod but then i want another animal that isn't on the other and vice versa. Is it possible to have 2 animals mods running or will that be all crazy. They're really the only mods I want, I might had a skin one but not too sure.

If not, which is the best in your opinion?

Lol

Yes you can run multiple mods at once. Depending on how the mods handle things it might take a little work on your part to make them both be fully active at once. For instance both might use the same resource ID for something, which means they won't run together, but if you adjust one so it uses a different ID, they will be compatible.
