Quick Jaguar Question
« on: October 03, 2005, 12:38:23 PM »
I have the perfect little area for my jaguars and according to the zookeeper looking after them, everything is fine and there is nothing I can do to change their conditions, but I am still getting messages saying they are unhappy. Their foliage, health and food meters are full, but the happiness is low...

Help?

Keep Replacing The Jaguar(s) And Zoo Keepers Constantly, As It Makes The Animal Happier, And If That Doesnt work, and it normally doesnt, Your best bet is just sell the Jaguars And Buy 2 New. So There exhibit is aready made.

Dont Be So Rude To The Jaguars, You Need Paintence, It's Not something I would go for myself, even though i love them.

What I do is Buy one Jaguar, Make a Suitable Exhibit For It Then Sell The First Jaguar, And buy a couple more ;)

Out of interest, are the lowland gorilla's also cranky like the jags? Because mine have all they need too and keep complaining.

Okay, thanks for the tip!

Another question actually, if that's okay :)

I have made a mixed exhibit of sea lions and otters, who seem to be getting on well and are in a good environment. I have made a show tank with the right toys, but how do I merge the exhibits? Nothing I try is working... :(

Merge tanks like from land to water....or from show tank to land?


For land to water, you build a tank with four walls and lower the tank wall until a slide looking things appears. From showtank to land, you have to build a tank for water. After building the tank, you line up the walls.

By building a tank for water, I mean in your otters exibit.

just want to say something about the jags, the bigger the better, adequate space and shelter is important for keeping them happy ;)

pikapower - I've tried everything you suggested there. I have the four walled showtank and a land exhibit next to it, but they will not merge. Or rather, when it suggests I merge it, it empties my show tank fo water and no little door appears! It's getting really frustrating now, I really cannot see where I am going wrong.

Tyto alba - thanks for the tip!  :cool

Dear vivica cherry, you can not merge a showtank with land. You will need to build a landexhibit and a tankexhibit (those can be merged) then build a showtank next to the tankexhibit (not the landpart) and lower the walls until you see the little door appear.
