A long time ago, in a forum, far far away, i attempted to create a zoo which could contain all the original animals from Zoo Tycoon: Dinosaur Digs, but, even though i was using the biggest map available, i unfortunately ran out of space. After a long time and some random stuff, i've decided to try it again. So yeah, here's my second attempt on making this zoo. I downloaded Poharex's "No Grass please" mod, which will surely help quite a lot in this endeavor.

The main entrance

As usual, we start the tour with some of the earliest dinosaurs known. These are our adult Coelophysis

We also have a healthy herd of Moschops as well. They may look like reptiles, but are actually closer to mammals, and lived before dinos showed up. Made by good ol' Poharex!

These are our Herrerasaurus, enjoying their forested exhibit.

A couple of Plateosaurus. They're the youngest animals in the park, along with...

...Our two little Plesiosaurus. Turns out, some more conventional fences can apparently contain them, but these are babies, time will tell if the fences can still keep them when they grow up.

A Jurassic World-esque main street with lots of decorations (the vintage dino statues are from Poharex's "No Grass Please"

 

Overview time!

Anyways, i will keep working on this zoom time will tell if this time i'm able to put all of the DD animals or if i'll run out of space once more.

WOW!!!  That is AWESOME!!!  Great job DinoMarioZilla!!!  :cheer1:

I am not that big on DD.  I like your zoo!  Now, I'm tempted to do one.  Looking forward to more pix!

I agree! Very nice job! I have only done a few dino zoos in my time here. Maybe I'll try again, they are a lot of fun working with them!

Good news everyone! While i ran out of zoo space once more, the difference is that this time, i managed to include ALL of the original DD animals plus a few new ones! Yes! Poharex's mod truly is a lifesaver. Now that the whole Build-A-Complete-Dinosaur-Zoo business has been fullfilled, i will move on to other projects. Enjoy the pics, guys!

Our biggest exhibit is this one, housing three major herbivores from the Morrison formation, Apatosaurus, Stegosaurus and Camptosaurus.

And this one has two major herbivores of the hell Creek formation, Triceratops and Ankylosaurus. They're slightly more aggressive than most of our other plant-eaters, which is why we keep their home in a chasm.

Styracosaurus and Lambeosaurus share this forested habitat.

Velociraptor couple!

Our ice age safari, which has a big, spacious steppetundra home shared by woolly mammoths, steppe bisons, tarpans, woolly rhinos and Paracamelus. A fairly popular exhibit, if a wee-bit stinky. Our scientists spend a good deal of time cleaning it up.

Our Plateos and Plesios have grown up!

And of course, we've managed to get our hands on the biggest, meanest guys of the bunch, the three theropods from the pack! Our Spinos have grown up already, but the Allos and the Rexes are still babies.

Our two Nessies originally had a rather small exhibit, so, upon seeing i had some spare space, i decided to build them a bigger and more comfortable habitat

Where their old habitat was, there is now another area for guests.

As for this one, i must shamefully confess, this idea isn't mine, i originally saw it on this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m1dyVhfuhWI zoo by Akryloth, and liked it so much, i decided to try my hand at doing something similar. Looks alright, too bad you can't put fences in diagonal directions. Oh well.

I may post a few more updates when the Allos and the Rexes grow up and there are still a few things to fix.

There are diagonal fence pieces...in the fence download section. You have to use the invisible fence with it.
