AnewZoocreator Posted August 26, 2022 Author Posted August 26, 2022 I started a zoo again, and this is what I've got until now: I first made the "visitor area", before my first exhibit. I then spontaneously decided on the Tundra Gold-Winged Dragon and the scimitar Oryx. The next exhibit was devoted to Paraceratherium (the desert type, which I like more than the Savannah type). I at first tried to keep Rhim Gazelles and Goitered Gazelles together, but their needs are not compatible, thus, I separated them quickly. 3
(Admin)Cricket Posted September 1, 2022 Posted September 1, 2022 I love all the brightly-colored fences that you've used.
AnewZoocreator Posted September 2, 2022 Author Posted September 2, 2022 22 hours ago, Cricket said: I love all the brightly-colored fences that you've used. And thus (i.e. because I love them, too), I downloaded the rest of @Fern's coloured fences today - and already put them to use. A black fence of course befits the black panther. I also filled up my rainforest area - now it's an area of rare and extinct species from the Kouprey and Saola to the Okapi: These exhibits are planted up - some to 90 % - so that the animals might not be visible. I started to plant up the Uintatherium exhibit already, but that'll continue tomorrow. And I of course noticed that I might have to replace the fence for the stronger "steel and concrete" one. I use coloured steel-and-concrete fences almost exclusively, for both extant and extinct animals from a spotted cuscus to a Paraceratherium or Struthiomimus. And yes, I love pink even as a man! 3 2
AnewZoocreator Posted September 3, 2022 Author Posted September 3, 2022 More building was done, more colours were tested, and some exhibits were changed/remodeled... First, an overview: the remaining free space. There is some below, but not too much remains: Kouprey, Saola, American Bison, black Panther, Uintatherium and spotted cuscus, together with some parts of other exhibits: The centre and the "left-wing" exhibit. Of course Merychippus is apolitical. And I didn't know that Arctic foxes and - much less - Struthiomimus breed like rabbits! The original built-up area. I might give up on Scimitar-horned oryx or remake this area at some point. My newest exhibit, to be completed tomorrow or soon. I don't know whether anyone can guess from the eggs alone which dinosaur is going to hatch here? I wanted at least some coniferous/decidouous forest animals (the latter, I think, is the most neglected terrain type!), and I chose Lambeosaurus: Unfortunately, Rhim Gazelles were never really happy and never was their exhibit all that suitable (although "suitability" was claimed by the veterinarian info). And soon, I noticed that only one sole Goitered Gazelle remained. Quickly, I added more and merged the two exhibits, selling the Rhims. A closer view with an actual Okapi visible: The Arctic fox exhibit came from the as-of-yet unused green fenced exhibit, but I decided to recolour it more fittingly for a polar one. You can see a Kouprey, but I doubt you can see a Saola here: 2
AnewZoocreator Posted September 5, 2022 Author Posted September 5, 2022 A bit more progress: Not all that much, but I really wanted one typical savannah animal. Otherwise, I mostly reworked and expanded exhibits. I significantly expanded the Arctic Fox exhibit at the cost of the American Bison. As a non-ingame typical savannah animal, I chose the eland. I love Rhoetosaurus, by the way, as well as Lambeosaurus. I have no solution to the Struthiomimus issue though - they continue breeding like rabbits! I have considered sacrificing Cryolophosaurus (spelling?), but I still don't really have a solution. I did notice that there were no sporred tortoises left (probably, they died of old age, their exhibit was absolutely fine) - and thus I could make the Persian Leopards happier. And yes, a section of path is cut off... As I already said, deciduous forest is probably the most neglected terrain type (or the mods that I downloaded are biased?), and thus I'm gonna to build a Forest Tarpan exhibit. 3
AnewZoocreator Posted September 6, 2022 Author Posted September 6, 2022 As I said yesterday, I wanted to build the Forest Tarpan exhibit: Struthiomimusgate found no solution - I had hoped giving up on Cryolophosaurus would be the solution, but the damage was done. This was only a temporary "fix". Happiness never quite returned, too many feces kept being a problem, and too many animals as well: I thus adopted red-fronted gazelles (giving up on strictly terrained areas) and Ophistocoelicauda: The last exhibit I built is one for the Chiru. Mountainous and cliff exhibits aren't that complicated, after all. You can also see a Dinictis exhibit. And here is the Dinictis in full: The revamped Arctic Fox: I also gave up on scimitar-horned oryx and just granted the whole area to my beloved Paraceraterium. Here you can see the actual Dinictis: 3
AnewZoocreator Posted September 7, 2022 Author Posted September 7, 2022 I devoted the last exhibit area (which I had already fenced in) to a Tarchia, a desert-terrain ankylosaurid. 1
AnewZoocreator Posted September 13, 2022 Author Posted September 13, 2022 Revamping my zoo, its visitor areas, getting more exhibits out of it, connecting the section of path that was cut off, and enhancing deciduous forest terrain! An Aurochs and the Russian-Arabian Dun Horse. I reduced several exhibit sizes - among them the goitered gazelle, the Tundra Dragon and the Paraceratherium. Grown-up Tarchia: A new (main?) visitor area. Exhibits, but I haven't decided on the animals yet... And this was a temporary step in-between: Another temporary state of affairs:
