I've taken a break from some of my Admin stuff and my website stuff to finish up a new medium map tonight. Let me see if I can get the pics up here...

Now that's what I call making an entrance! Very nice LadyZ!

Aaawwww, thank you Zookreeper, but it's not really one of my best efforts. I'm still going to work on it a bit.

I have also been working on a 2nd zoo using my new small Twin Falls Rainforest Zoo Map. The guest happiness with the first zoo was not up to my expectations so I'm testing it again. First up, I put an exhibit for my beloved Giraffes, then Little C's lions. At the corner of the exhibits I built the Bush Tuck restaurant with a complete walk-around patio.

The Lions new neighbors were Little C's Elephants and their toys. Across from them are 2 of my favorite grazing animals, the Zebras and Gazelles. They are in seperate exhibits, with a full sized walk through viewing area that takes them from the center of the zoo to the Elephant Exhibit.

Wow...once you play ZT2 for a while, ZT1 seems so primitive

As always, I love the new pics!

The landscaping is wonderful!!! I always get so inspired by your pics! I can't wait to see more! Am I correct in thinking that these will be all land dwelling animal exhibit???

Zookreeper · « **Reply #208 on:** March 30, 2007, 07:27:46 PM »

Hang on a sec, I'm taking notes. Er, um Doing reasearch, Yeah that's it, I'm doing Reasearch!!!

Very nice. The paths are like carpets, That's new. Raised buildings, (scribles) very good. OK I'm done. I like it LadyZ! You have Artistry in your soul.

LadyZookeeperNY · « **Reply #209 on:** March 30, 2007, 07:46:17 PM »

Thank you so much FH and ZK...

FH-I haven't decided yet on whether I'm going to put in a marine exhibit or not. If I do it will probably be :dolphin as they are my absolute favorite.

ZK-You are way too kind...artistry in my soul-WOW, that's a supreme compliment! Thank you so very much! Ya know, you can always copy/paste these pics to your computer instead of taking notes...

I feel the call of ZT1 a lot lately (might have something to do with all those ZT1 downloads I've been working with) but I just don't have time. So it's so fun to come in here and see what you're doing, because your pics are awesome and give me somewhat of a ZT1 fix! These last few pics you posted are sooo pretty!

Panda King · « **Reply #211 on:** March 31, 2007, 07:06:37 PM »

I've been feeling ZT1's call ALOT latley too... Ohhh....

You, LadyZ, are an inspiration.

LadyZookeeperNY · « **Reply #212 on:** April 05, 2007, 12:47:43 PM »

Peacenote & Panda King, you are both very kind with your compliments... :eggblush thank you very much!

I did a bit more building recently, so I though I'd get these posted before I start my last big area for this zoo.

My Bengal Tigers now have new neighbors--their cousins the White Bengal Tigers. At the corner is the newly constructed Rain Forest Restaurant, complete with moat and gardens.

LadyZookeeperNY · « **Reply #213 on:** April 05, 2007, 12:49:50 PM »

This is a better pic of the RF Restaurant and the Reptile House just next to my white tigers.

LadyZookeeperNY · « **Reply #214 on:** April 05, 2007, 12:55:03 PM »

The empty space next to the Rain Forest Restaurant was just the right size to put in the Petting Zoo. I'm not at all sure I like the colors I chose for it... :eggcrazy I had to take this pic without the foliage, otherwise you wouldn't have been able to see it! Can we says ooppssiiee?! :eggwhistle

LadyZookeeperNY · « **Reply #215 on:** April 05, 2007, 01:02:37 PM »

In the back corner I shifted gears a bit and put in an exhibit for the Black Bears. The first pic has the foliage turned off so you can see the viewing area.

LadyZookeeperNY · « **Reply #216 on:** April 05, 2007, 01:05:11 PM »

Here is the pic with the foliage turned on.

LadyZookeeperNY · « **Reply #217 on:** April 05, 2007, 01:11:55 PM »

On the other side of the zoo, in the rear corner, I decide to do a couple more marine exhibits. Since I have never done an exhibit for the Manatees in recent memory, I placed them next to my African Elephants. Next to the Manatees I put in the Boat Shack attraction, and WOW, did guests start flocking to that!

LadyZookeeperNY · « **Reply #218 on:** April 05, 2007, 01:15:00 PM »

Across the path from the Boat Shack an exhibit for the Manta Rays was built. Lobby's Marine Restaurant has also been a big favorite of my guests. Statues of Poseidon and double wide Marine arches makes a nice gateway for the marine section of my zoo.

And, as always, the final 2 pics are the most recent overviews. Hope you like! :eggwub

Zookreeper · « **Reply #221 on:** April 05, 2007, 01:42:16 PM »

Very nice indeed LadyZ!! I feel moved to get back to my zoo and get busy.

LadyZookeeperNY · « **Reply #222 on:** April 05, 2007, 01:47:01 PM »

Animalover44 · « **Reply #223 on:** April 05, 2007, 02:55:40 PM »

This latest zoo is very well planned and creative! I was never this talented when I played ZT1. :egggrin

LadyZookeeperNY · « **Reply #224 on:** April 05, 2007, 07:47:00 PM »

Oh, you were too Animalover44, you just didn't think you were! :slol: ( :offtopic: here: congrats on your MOM Animalover!). Hey, I'm allowed-it's my thread

Well, I am finished with this zoo. Tonight I completed that empty spot in the back area by building an elevated Food Court with the Carousel in the middle of it. However, before those pics are presented, there was some other space to be filled first. I decided to put in one more marine exhibit with another new creature for me-the Atlantic Swordfish.
