Flamingo Mini-Pack by msc3323
By Cricket
This Mini-Pack contains the American Flamingo and the Rosy Flamingo (Greater Flamingo). Unfortunately they are somewhat big, but real beauties.
Updated by Jay in May of 2020:
From Jay:
Here is the updated flamingo mini pack. Since I do not like apostrophes or spaces in zip file names, I removed the apostrophe and changed the spaces to underscores. Although I do not like apostrophes or spaces in ztd file names either, I did not change that file name. I added English animal info, put the German animal info into paragraphs, reduced the amount of space needed for the flamingos, changed the location for the American Flamingo from Africa to North America, changed the needed food from hay to fish, added the small rock as a specifically liked rock, changed the Rosy Flamingo name in English to Greater Flamingo, and removed unnecessary files and configuration lines.

By Savannahjan
Originally released December 2003 as part of the ZTU (Blegium) Collection
The Magpie Goose, named after it's black and white plumage, is a common sight on the wetlands of northern Australia. Their diet consists mostly of swamp grasses and tubers, for which they duck-dive under the water to reach The magpie goose is not exactly a goose, and not exactly a duck. Unlike other water birds, it's feet are only half webbed, leading to it being placed in it's own family. The absence of totally webbed feet allow the magpie goose to roost in trees and climb over the reeds and sedges growing around flood plains.
**UPDATED July 27, 2009 by Genki to clean up file. Made corrections to the .uca to fix warnings that were coming up on the .uca checker. Removed extra, unused animations in the young section. Added description to downloads area.

Silkie Chickens ~ Sunset Penguin by Sundance
By Savannahjan
Updated October 21, 2007:
Although the previous version of the Sunset Penguin worked in the original ZT, it would unexpectedly bash through fences in the expansion packs due to an error in the expansion packs. The above Sunset Penguin is now updated so that it no longer unexpectedly bashes through fences in the expansion packs. In addition, it has been optimized to use ingame sounds directly instead of having its own copies of the sounds, making the download much smaller. (Description of changes by Jay)
Silkies are a breed of chicken that have feathers like fur. Their laid-back personalities allow them to adapt to many different enviroments and make them excellent pets. This pack includes three different colors, Buff, Black, and White. They're compatible with several grassland animals, have fun figuring out which ones!
