Seraphii's (new) Zoo's

Ok young man----time for some comments and answers! :woot: Did I just scare ya? I know I've been remiss in my postings about your zoos so I'm going to make up for it today. (takes deep breath)

First of all, you are certainly off to a great and unique start! I've never seen a Black Bear exhibit built like yours, but the best part is the water falls and ponds that lead down to the Moose exhibit. That is incredible work...'course those stairs up to see the Bears were nearly killers :sweatingb . You have definately been taking water effects lessons somewhere (probably from Speedy). I really like how you mixed up several different terrains to make that effect in front of the Flamingo exhibit. It looks very natural and "real". Now, one of these years I'm going to remember to use the large exhibit rocks as decor items other than just the waterfall---the large desert rock formation truly adds to the "real" look of things. And who can resist watching the Polar Bears, especially when they're swimming. The only comment here: where's his toy? :shocked:  Now, please tell me where you got that absolutely wonderful brick pathway...I Love It!!!

This zoo definately gets 2:thumbsup:  and an A+++++ in my book!! Keep Building!! :wub:

@Nique: thank you so much =D
@Animalover: hehe thanks,it seems to be my most popular exhibit
@Alloy: thanks! and yes,you have to complete the arctic construction *or download the freeform unlock hack =)*
@Mo:thanks!
@Budgie: thank you,but i am no master,Speedy,Mo,Bengal,LadyZ, and Tigeress are truly higher than i am in skill,and you probably are too!
LadyZ: wow,long comment =D Than you! the Black bears and mose together is my Favorite exhibit in this zoo! =D the famingos,well,time for an explanation.....:
Flaminogs in africa migrate to an area where there is geysers and hotsprings everywhere,where it is 140 degrees out and the water burns almost anything,no plants grow except on the bank..... so i recreated that =D
and the polar bears are pretty cool,but they arent my favorite... and the toy is in the last picture =P

but...now for more pics:
Edit:lol I just posted the same poar bear pic over again =O

For some reason your zoos remind me of Role Playing Games from Super Nintendo, somehting like Chrono Trigger or something, lol. Maybe its all the water....

Anyways, great zoo as always Seraphii!

Thanks Budgie and GK!
and now its time for a new zoo!
the Mangrove zoo!
this zoo takes place in a forest/market in Thailand!:


"Welcome to Thailand! I will be your guide today. My name is Seraphii.*chuckles*
  Lets stop at the market first, Im starving, and I bet you are too!"





" Okay, here we are! So, what do you want? Pizza? Hamburgers? A Hot Dog?"





"Wow, that was great! now, on to the forest "*we walk for a bit, until we step out off the boardwalk and onto a sandy beach forming eventually into a forest*:

@ Gourami Keeper: Haha! thanks.. but your the one in a Zoo tycoon 1 buidling group, not me ;P You zoos are extremely better than mine! XD

AND NOW! time for more pics!:

You step in the boat, and head down the river... and as you ride the river...you see tigers!:




there is an unfortunate road..err riverblock, so you head the other way!
And the boat captain screams "TAPIR!*, and you trn to see a pair of them on the bank:


Still along the river, a herd of elephants come crashing out of the forest!:

Having a boat ride in an animal exhibit is a really cool idea Serapii. If I still played ZT1 I'd definitely try that for myself.
