A friend was there today, the friend who helped me rediscover Zoo Tycoon. And we played somewhat cooperatively, with both of us getting to decide on animals. Of course, first it was the Return of The Ligabueino! Because the friend, unlike me, is a fan of FC Bayern Munich, he called the fence a "FC Bayern fence": The next animal was his one, and he chose a sabretooth, namely Machairodus giganteus: I then built the long, long "bridge ride"(?) in one of the Contest packs, and used the small area below the FC Bayern fence and west of the ride for a small hummingbird and a somewhat bigger Scarlet Macaw exhibit: And then, I downloaded a few more files from this site and "built" Bissektipelta, Chialingasaurus and Dacentrurus, resulting in a great deciduous/coniferous area: My friend, meanwhile, loved Ice Age as a child and thus chose the in-game wooly mammoth: but he also chose Fallow and European Red Deer: The visitor areas are exclusively from me, mainly this area with the rollercoaster ride included in one of the Contest files:

Moving now to the research area;(partly because in real life the last zoo segment was beginning to run slowly) you can see the results of some of the cloning experiments

That is one of the towers from Toodle pops arcade buildings

The area mostly contains sheep & goats

There's a wide variety of mountain animals to view here

In another part of the zoo we've created an artificial valley to display the mountain animals

All animals were sold, now, the map consists only of the - many different - types of terrain:

All animals have been hedged in, no guests are left in the zoo. And by now, at least three staff have not survived against Rinchenia.

The situation seconds after the violent restart - the fourth one in this save, in March 32: Several minutes later - many areas have already calmed down, but especially Paraceratherium and Andrewsarchus (but to an extent also Rinchenia) have proven fast and have nearly crossed the whole zoo. Andrewsarchus and Rinchenia have already attacked guests, and as far as I could see, several animals (moose?) have been eaten.

The last exhibits I built before a violent restart: Blackbuck (Hirschziegenantilope in German): South American coati/Giant Anteater: Hamadryas Baboon: And, for overview purposes:

Revamping the empty area between the Pharao restaurant and the DBT-Station, I got another exhibit out of it. And it harbours the Kermode Bear (or Spirit Bear):

A closer look at the Andrewsarchus exhibit for @Savannahjan: And this is my newest area - completely restructured the entrance area, sold off Whitetail Dear - and got a bit more space for Ligabueino and a new Chasmosaurus exhibit out of it! Seemingly, they don't need any shelter at all...

The Ligabueino are thriving, though, and several individuals both blue and red (thus the fence colours!) are happy - up to 100 % happiness and 96 % or something suitability! I love those!

Flamingos in a harmonious all-party coalition - and I expanded the enclosure by just a little bit again by moving the iMax building: Blue Dragon - (partly) blue path. The red fence was originally to provide a contrast to the blue dragon, but I had to close the whole exhibit off with the invisible fence as the (red) reinforced concrete and glass fence (Stahlbetonmauer mit Glas) was very soon breached by the Sonoran Azure Dragons. I gave up on Red Foxes, at least for now...

I went for (white and conventional) African Elephants here: , for a Siberian Ibex (one of the "Gobi pack" animals) and, expanding an enclosure that held giraffes at one point, for a Serval:

There's a good selection here

Two more exhibits only possible thanks to the lovely additional uploads by @Cricket today: All colours of flamingoes! When the exhibit was always "too small", I expanded it with the other half of the former horse and the former Shetland Pony exhibit. both had been empty for a while now, and I had given half of it to the Red Deer already. And this was the result: And the colourful ostriches:
