Hello,
in complement of my "main" fantasy zoo, and before describing its North Asian Section, I would describe another park.
This park is its sister zoo (at the beginning it was created to house the animals in excess from the "original" zoo), but its conception is quite different. It's more a Wild Animal Park, with a 100 ha surface.
The species are less numerous (especially for birds, reptiles, and fish) but they have got more space. Especially large species of mammals live in natural-looking plains, and often in mixed exhibits.
There are breeding units for large endangered mammals too.
There'a a path from the entrance to a central zone. Along this path we can see (n°1-2 on the map) quite common animals (Zebras, Dromedaries...).
The central zone (n°3-11) hosts mainly marine animals and a reptile house ; we can see also some water birds.
Otherwise, there are trails that start at the central zone, towards geographical themed zones, that are the following :
- Mysterious Europe (n°12-23) ;
- Asian Expedition (n°24-38) ;
- Secret Outback (n°39-46) ;
- Canadian Odyssey (n°47-52) ;
- Amazonian Adventure (n°53-58) ;
- African Trek (n°59-79).
