Firehawke Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Love the new pics! What size map are you using? Keep up the great work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoderickRavn Posted March 25, 2015 Author Share Posted March 25, 2015 Thanks guys. I'm using the large grassy map for my zoo. I'm coming to the end now, and still have southeast asia and china. I'm going to have to be creative with the space I have left! As you leave the American bison paddock, cross the bride over zoo center, and enter our European Village. Here you'll find Margaret's bakery for all your fresh baked goods needs, as well as royal gift emporium. You can grab a nice hot cup of espresso, or eat authentic irish cuisine at McGilly's Pub. Here children and adults alike will delight to ride our ponies. Children will also love the chance to feed the ducks in our duck pond. Heading down the cobblestone trail, visit the Royal historical society for some history of the zoo. Up the stairs on the right, visit our state of the art Eurasian Steppes exhibit. This exhibit contains our magnificent pair of woolly mammoths, as well as a single woolly rhinoceros. These large animals love to graze in their paddock. Heading back down the stairs and straight ahead, visit our tranquil deer meadow, to see our fallow, red, and roe deer. Just past the historical society catch a view of our elusive unicorns in the enchanted forest paddock. The British royal family has kept these creatures secret for a long time, but now that they are rare, they've broken the secrecy to start a joint effort breeding program. The next two exhibits on the trail are our ibex and red squirrels. Guests love to watch these wild goats frolic among the hills of their exhibit. Though small, the red squirrels are just as charismatic as the larger species. Guests can watch them play among the bushes in their aviary between the ibexes and deer meadow. The last exhibit is very special to us, and is only here for a limited time, so catch it if you can! We are proud to play host to Nessie, the famous "lochness monster." She's not really a monster at all, in fact, she's quite friendly but kind of shy. She is still young, but is the only one of her kind as far as we can tell. She is on loan from Scotland for the time being, so we can research all we can about her. Thanks for tuning in to this edition of the JDR zoological research institute. Next up, Australia!

RoderickRavn Posted March 29, 2015 Author Share Posted March 29, 2015 Thank you guys! Zoo building is a big passion of mine. If you take the left path off the bridge, you'll come to our Australian Outback trail. Grab some unique gifts from Outback Emporium, and see our exotic lyrebirds in the aviary next door. The heart of australia is of course the kangaroos. Catch our resident mob of red kangaroos as the centerpiece of our australian trail. Guests can even feed them if they wish. Just up the path, our reclusive thylacines are kept. This species is unique to Tasmania, and our pair has already contributed to reintroduction projects. Heading around the other side, watch our fearsome saltwater crocodiles at the daily feeding show. Guests love to watch these awesome predators jump out of the water for a treat. Just next door, visit our barrier reef aquarium to see some colorful fish, as well as other critters of the shallows. What would australia be, without some creepy critters? Visit our Invertebrate house to see sydney funnel-webs and giant centipedes, sure to give you the heebie-jeebies! Our last exhibit on the trail are our Caledonian giant tortoises. These guys are relicts of the past, looking more like the armored ankylosaurs than tortoises. This species is another zoo success, with reintroduction looking good in the coming years. You can also see one of our many genetic facilities here, housing our Island genetic subdivision, which cares for the resurrected species that come from Islands. That's it for Australia! Thanks for watching. Up next, the path to Africa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoderickRavn Posted March 30, 2015 Author Share Posted March 30, 2015 Thank you Firehawke. Going left past the entrance of the zoo itself, we find our state of the art staff center. Here our staff learn all they need to be the best zoo keepers, researchers, scientists, marine and show specialists and maintenance workers they can be. Our warehouses can also be seen here, as well as our compost and recycle centers. The staff also have a nice picnic area. Across from here guests can visit the ATM to borrow money, and get their photo taken at the photo booth. Watch a wildlife documentary while you're at it, at our IMAX movie theater. If you're hungry, don't forget to grab a bite at Max's Bar and Grill, and then head over to see our famous California sea lion show! Our two sea lions love to show off their awesome talent to guests. Catch the show at 10 AM and 1 PM. You can also see our sea lions in their exhibit home right next door. Once you've seen the show, head across the way to visit our penguin rookery. This was the zoos first exhibit back when it opened and it has remained in the same place ever since then. We currently house ten emperor penguins, with more on the way! the chicks are currently kept in an off exhibit area until they are old enough to join. Just next door to our penguin rookery, you can find the red panda exhibit currently under construction. We are patiently waiting until these cute asian animals become available. Next we visit the African Rainforest! Thank you for tuning in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
