Yeah, it does, except for the part when I build it, maybe someone more talented, like you or zoohio or Bengal =D
 Another thing I am excited for is to see what the master zoo builders will do with MM2!

It means when you approach them up close you can press spacebar not just to groom them, but to swim with them on their back for a little while. :original:


Maybe you cat swim with animals that regularly go on land, because the transition would be kind of weird.

Well, you can swin with sea turtles, and they go on land.  Also, I beleive I've seen swimming with sa lions somewhere.  I could always be mistaken.

I think the koi is just placeable and cannot be eaten, I think it just swims aroung and looks nice.

Yeh, that is true. Think of the mixed exhibits! When I heard the orca was in tundra I instantly thought of a half land half water exhibit with polar bears lol.

Mixing Polar Bear and Orca would look beautiful! That's a great idea. Two of my favorite animals... I can't wait for the release...

I cant wait to make a coral reef exhibit with the manta ray and the black tip reef shark. Hopefully, they dont attack eachother. :laughing:

Assuming the orcas don't eat the polar bears like they did in ZT1...

Did you guys happen to think that we might be only able to swim with animals that would normally be safe to swim with? No-one would randomly grab ahold of a White Shark, or any shark for that matter, and try to go for a swim. A Cetacean or turtle, on the other hand, would be a likely candidate to swim with.

A penguin is too small to pull the weight of a human being through water, as would be a Sea Otter, Sea Lion, or Goblin Shark.

I know I wouldn't swim with a white shark! Maybe a turtle or dolphin.

Actually there is the whale shark. People have walked on them without them noticing nevermind swimming with them. Plus this is family friendly , if you can walk beside a T-rex without getting hurt , you can swim with a shark.

i wonder if we can ride thw whale sharks it may so be because many people do it in real life and now that I know the list and excited but I don`t think a goblin shark was ever kept in captive before though?:hmmm:

There are scenes in some Nature shows showing someone riding along side a whale shark but I don't think I have seen anyone ever touch one before.Also, I'm pretty sure there is no captive goblin sharks.

Do you think the great whites would eat people? That would be kinda graphic...

no whale sharks are filter feeders, and i also think that their throat is only the size of a dime like modern whales

They were talking about the White Shark. I bet it will eat people like the T-Rex did.

Thats an awsome list. The only things I would change is to replace the False Killer Whale with a Harbor Seal (come on, no seals?) and to replace the Great White Shark (thats impossible, they can never live in captivity) with some kind of Eel or River Dolphin/Porpise. Otherwise, great graphics and looks like a good buy.

Oh. I thought I read somewhere that they always die in captivity. Guess not. Still, they have too much sharks.

I think they survive in captivity, but their not all that happy and don't do well.
