Hello Everyone! I’m a newer member to the forums. I usually look up ideas, play games, and spend time with my family. But that’s not currently my case.


As of right now, I'm planning to make a basic Fantasy Zoo on this site. Not an over-the-top Zoo, just a normal traditional Fantasy Zoo. So i need some help with the following:


  • How to make a good walk through / description of the exhibits.

  • What are common Complex themes from Zoos you visited such as:

    • Zoo Geographic Based: African Savanna, Asian Islands, etc.

    • Taxonomic Based: Big Cats, Primates, etc.

    • Biome Based: Tropical Rainforest, Desert, etc.
  • What kinds of Animals to include in the attractions.

Any help would be appreciated. I’ve been following the site for a while now, and making ideas for a little while shorter, so once again, any help would be appreciated.


Thanks!:)

(P.s. Meaning of username is that i like to play Frontier Developments Planet Zoo;))

A quick addition. You guys can also add complex inspirations along with the requirements above.

Here's two more that I just came up with:
Expedition Asia: Gharials, gibbons, macaques, Malayan Tapirs, Red Pandas, Snow Leopards Tigers
Rainforests of the World: Tropical house with colobuses, birds, mangabeys, Ocelots, porcupines, sakis, sloths, tamarins, and titis
 
After some consideration, i decided i should also add a Aquarium and a Safari Park to the Zoo. Again, i just want a normal, basic Zoo, so if anyone has any ideas that would be appreciated.

Something that would be cool if you wanted is a safari for Asia or the Americas instead of just the typical African animals. I'm not much of a fish person, so I won't be a big help with the aquarium. Let me know if you need any more ideas.
