Like the use of the wooden posts in between the glass.

The wooden posts are probably my fave item to use haha

I would be posting more but because i am literially the worlds biggest idiot, i have just accidently saved over my completed zoo. I cant begin to explain how annoyed i am with myself.

Finally got around to playing a bit, continuing to remodel the entrance, finally moved the gemsbok temporarily and pygmy hippos died out.

Old bear house.


With new extension the other side


Old bear enclosures will be used for male bear after breeding with the female.

I was trying new things on the game. Here is a nocturnal house for aardvarks (linked to an outdoor exhibit) :

I never thought to doing that!

And now, a collection of pics from the zoo I'm currently building.

Have decided to finally start showing my own project - recreating ZSL Whipsnade Zoo to scale in the game! Here’s a link to part one of the introduction to the project and what’s been done so far

I've spent yesterday evening/this morning (currently 3am) building the first part of my version of a US "Roadside zoo or so called Sanctuary). It's taken a stupid amount of time, but I've built two small tiger exhibits (Bengal and Siberian, as titled in the game); each is connected to a small house via tunnels. I hope to continue the zoo with more carnivores - Jags, Hyena and bears are my next options... and I may choose to add some hoofstock/ungulates, I'm thinking the camels would make a sensible addition that would also fit with the theme. I plan to do much more decorating, making the zoo more realistic... but here's an idea of what the zoo looks like currently. (Work in progress)

American Bison
Arctic Wolf
Bactrian Camel
Bengal Tiger
Columbian White-faced Capuchin Monkey
Common Ostrich
Common Warthog
Gemsbok
Grizzly Bear
Indian Peafowl
Japanese Macaque
Llama
Nile Monitor

Jaguars aren't usually found in roadside zoos.

Jaguars aren't usually found in roadside zoos.

That doesn't matter, I'll still be using them.

 

[TNT]

Some updates to the zoo - I've created a small keeper area and a medium sized entrance building, which will lead into a small plaza. With the addition of some foliage and barriers, this area is starting to come together... It's by no means done.. but it's certainly starting to look more realistic. Next up, some small covered tiger stalls!

 

[TNT]

Day 3 of the roadside zoo build - I've built two covered big cat cages/stalls which currently house the offspring from the Siberian/Bengal pairs in the open topped exhibits. Alongside this, I've built a "corn crib" cage type exhibit for a small Capuchin group. The final image shows the whole zoo up to this point

 

[TNT]

Day 4 of the roadside build - A little less than usual, but I didn't play for long this evening. Here we have an enclosure for a single brown bear to fill in the empty corner of the zoo.

 

[TNT]

Day 5 of the roadside build - Today I've built a very small "corn crib" Jaguar cage, which currently holds a pair; I plan to make a larger exhibit in the future. In addition to this, I've built a medium sized camel exhibit, the first large mammal that isn't a carnivore. I'm not sure what I'll build tomorrow evening... I'm thinking Hyena?

 

[BongoHardwood]

Have now uploaded the first proper enclosure build for my Whipsnade Zoo recreation! Cheetah Rock on show area now done. On to hippos next!

I'm obsessed with your zoo. Keep up the good work.

I'm obsessed with your zoo. Keep up the good work.

Thank you! I've made a few additions since, but I've been busy with work. I'll give an update in the next few days ... I've added a Wolf/Hyena complex.
