The first part of the deciduous forest area will present common forest animals from North America and Europe.

A canadian forest with both deciduous and coniferous forest, lots of rocks and a cave shelter for the animals, and a bit of snow :

For the visitors, new rocky observation area, naturally integrated in the scenery :

And, as usual, the 2 pages describing them in the Guide :

Hope you like the first one, don't hesitate to ask for the pdf files if you want to read my Guide, or even try ! French is not so difficult ^^

Hi everyone !

 

Second exhibit for the deciduous forest area :)

The two pages describing the animal :

GUIDE058_zps2678c0f3.jpg

 

Focus on the exhibit : the cave shelter is closed to a small mountain range, for a more natural effect.

They also have a waterpoint, others rocky formations and lot of trees to recreate the northern american forest.

Visitors can observe the animals from the rocky gallery observation point.

Love the placement of the cave shelter and the rocky observation area looks great. The exhibit is so lush and natural, another nice job. As always the guide is beautiful.

hello hello ^^ I've juste finished the leaflet for the deciduous forest (part. 1) and I can't wait to show you the result :elkgrin: but before, let me show you the third exhibit for this area :

 

Exhibit n°26 - Moose (Orignal/Élan)

Male : Truk, Mush (if you remember Disney's Brother Bear ^^)

Female : Alces

Enclos026-Elans_zpsd21408c7.jpg

 

Here are the pages for the Explorator's Guide :

GUIDE059_zps3227df8c.jpg

 

GUIDE060_zps91f86103.jpg

 

Focus on the exhibit : a forest of birches and willows, small rocks and a pond and, of course, a wooden shelter :

074-eacutelans_zpsa8a8e516.jpg

 

Mooses are closed to the bears exhibit, which are carnivores so I could not do a unique exhibit without separation, as I did with the previous ones.. I chose to place a kind of mountain range to create a natural separation :

Hope you will like it !! I'm about to start to build the following exhibits in the next days so .. To be continued ;-)

The rock wall formation is the perfect separation between the bear & moose. The exhibits have lots of foliage, but well designed so you can always see the animals, excellent work, as always.
