The operators in the enum definitions are OK, according to csc:

    public enum AllAnimals
    {
        Dino,
        Rex= Dino + Dinosaurs.Rex,
        Stegy= Dino + Dinosaurs.Stegy,
        Mammals,
        Whale= Mammals + Aquatic.Whale,
        Dolphin= Mammals + Aquatic.Dolphin,
    }

But the one in actual method code is not:

    public static void Main()
    {
        AllAnimals m= AllAnimals.Dino + Dinosaurs.Rex ;
    }

This one gives an error.

Good luck trying to fix this - you'll probably have to make the operators 
modal with an ILGenInfo flag for "evaluating an enum constant".  Ick!
