Rasun37 Posted December 20, 2012 Author Share Posted December 20, 2012 Thank you, and indeed. The beginning of April marks the fourth month of since the zoo's opening and it is a great day indeed. The tapir gave birth to an adorable child and with money saved up, we were able to adopt two new Tapirs into our zoo, fulfilling the council's request! I now pass on leadership of the zoo to someone new, as I am needed elsewhere! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rasun37 Posted January 13, 2013 Author Share Posted January 13, 2013 Thanks! After that campaign I completed the other two, but couldn't get any pictures worth taking, unfortunately.. but that does mean I won the Breeding Center, which looks very awesome. Since then, I've started a new zoo, this one a larger size, and I'm aiming for realistic exhibits while adding to the feeling that the zoo could be real, by having extra measures for guest protection and beauty of the zoo. All zoos I have been to would have either the area to view the animals elevated or have a ditch in-between the first fence where people stand, and a second shorter fence to contain the animals. Here is my attempt at a nice little food court. I tried to have flamingos in the river area, but guests kept falling off of the bridge somehow and causing the entire zoo to scream and run around in fear.

Rasun37 Posted January 13, 2013 Author Share Posted January 13, 2013 This is the first exhibit, which contains crocodiles. Their exhibit was tough, as I had to split up the river realistically. I think I did well, I added rocks, cattails, cyprus pines, and other plants around the coasts. The crocodiles have a little bank, walking area, and the center of the exhibit is a rocky formation with a tree in its center. The entire guest walkway is elevated just a little so rocks, tall grasses, and a short fence could be placed, yet still allow the guests to view the animals inside with ease and safety. I hope I succeeded with the exhibit.. Â Â Now here are shots of the crocodiles! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rasun37 Posted January 13, 2013 Author Share Posted January 13, 2013 The final exhibit as of my current progress is by far one of my best exhibits ever created! It contains Grizzly Bears. The exhibit has a main area for the bears to walk, eat, drink, and a pathway to enrichment items and their den. My favorite part of the exhibit it the pool and waterfall, and the patches of forest along the edges to make the bears feel at home! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rasun37 Posted January 13, 2013 Author Share Posted January 13, 2013 And finally, the beautiful bears! I absolutely love this reskin of it... It looks ten times better than the original! It can be found here along with many other astounding creations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(Admin)Savannahjan Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 The alligator exhibit is lovely; I like how the water is close to the walkway so guests can get a close up view. The bear exhibit is marvelous; love that waterfall. The last shot of the standing bear is great! Nice job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firehawke Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Wonderful job!!! I really like your waterfall...I've been trying to practice those. Can't wait to see more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rasun37 Posted January 14, 2013 Author Share Posted January 14, 2013 Thanks ! I've added two exhibits, the first, another favorite of mine: The Indian Falls Exhibit which features a marvelous waterfall, pool, variety of Indian foliage, and two Asian Elephants! The animals look marvelous and the female is pregnant which has me excited to see what it looks like. The rocks forming the waterfall make a neat rocky wall too! Here are the shots!
