If we backtrack down the slope and turn to the left, we will come upon this row of birch trees and see a bridge that travels through a dense thicket of beautiful foliage.

This is what you'll find on the other side of the bridge- monkey trails! This is the viewing area for the barbary ape.

Great pics as always, Stacie. And I'm with Earl - I like larger exhibits, especially for savannah. Keep up the good work!

A closer view of the area.

..And a look into the exhibit!

Bengal · « **Reply #253 on:** July 04, 2006, 11:42:32 AM »

Leaving the viewing area will take you on this path.

Bengal · « **Reply #254 on:** July 04, 2006, 11:43:16 AM »

You can grab a bite to eat...

Or view the birds which reside in monkey trails, the peafowl.

Through this arch is the next viewing area.

The geladas in their alpine home!

And the last picture for now (Phew! :sweatingb ) the overview of the Gelada exhibit.

Enjoy!

Good job with the Gelada exhibit. In the first photo, the gray peaks blend with the City Skyscrapers, and it looks like a futuristic painting.
I also see one of those cool arches in another photo, glad you figured them out.

:laughing: Yes I know, that kept popping up as I was taking the pictures. I ignored him though because he has an elevated drinking platform and about 6 water bowls from it's keeper

Thank you everyone for the wonderful comments! I hope to get more building done today and I might post some pictures.

Well with my newly downloaded Space Requirement Hack thanks to Sue aka RND, I will be starting a new zoo. I hope to include many animals in this one as the hack makes all animals require only 1 tile of space!!!! Can't wait to see how this turns out - it really is a great hack - I had about 20 elephants in a 6x6 exhibit LOL- and it will truely help with zoo building!!! I will be leaving for camp tomorrow and won't get back until late next week, so expect some pictures later!

RedNotDead · « **Reply #263 on:** July 15, 2006, 12:30:01 PM »

better be careful when you post those pics or someone will report you to to the Animal Rights Campaigners - but really if the animals are happy what business is it of theirs LOL:badgnome: :innocent:

Ok, well after playing around with MM2 a bit, I have a few pictures to show. The only ones now are of a Sea Lion exhibit; the first exhibit in the new zoo I have started. Here is the entrance to the underwater viewing area for the sea lions

Here you can be eye-level with the surface of the water

Or you can go underwater and watch the lions!

The last picture is of the above ground viewing.

I hope to get more built soon and more pictures posted! :original:

That sealion exhibit is awesome Bengal!Keep up the good work!:woot:

Bengal · « **Reply #267 on:** November 05, 2006, 05:29:36 PM »

Thanks!

Here is the entrance to the zoo I am working on now, which remains unnamed (because I have yet to think of one! :laughing: )

I haven't added any areas/exhibits yet, I'm off to do that now.

Budgielover101 · « **Reply #268 on:** November 05, 2006, 11:44:38 PM »

I love the entrance! even if it has no name yet :

:, im sure you will come up with one. It looks really good with the elephant fountain scenery in front of it.

Nique · « **Reply #269 on:** November 06, 2006, 04:40:28 AM »

I agree with Budgie - GREAT entrance! Mine always tend to look pretty plain...

Bengal · « **Reply #270 on:** November 10, 2006, 05:10:07 PM »

Alright, time for the first part of the tour of the zoo. This is the path leading to the right of the entrance.

Here is a look into the food court found in this section- pick from shishkebabs (sp? lol), hamburgers, ice cream, bottled water, or a nice cool soda, and rest under the shade of the massive elephant ear tree!

The first exhibit you will come across is the White Rhino exhibit. Currently at the zoo we have three rhinos. Kesai and Barook are the proud parents of a little boy named Umba.

Bengal · « **Reply #271 on:** November 10, 2006, 05:14:50 PM »

The neighbors to our White Rhinos are our three Hippos. There is one male- Ping, and two females- Pong and Peggy. Pong is expecting a baby and is due any day now! Here you can see Pong resting.

The exhibit in the middle of this section is the Crested Gibbons. We originally started off with two males and three females, and have ended up with a lot more! The gibbons really enjoy their monkey bars and can always be found playing on them.

Here you can see some decoration around our next exhibit- what could it be?

Budgielover101 · « **Reply #272 on:** November 10, 2006, 05:16:27 PM »

I like the rhino exhibit, it looks really natural. And i love the food court, the use of foliage is so pretty

EDIT: you posted the next bit while i was typing lol, I love it too!

Bengal · « **Reply #273 on:** November 10, 2006, 05:18:37 PM »

Here is the viewing area!

Here is the Meerkat exhibit! We currently have a mob of 15 meerkats. There have been several births in the past few months. This is a really fun exhibit- there is always mischieve to be had and it is very energetic!

The path wraps around the meerkat exhibit and enters the second zone of the zoo, which only contains three exhibits right now. Here you can find the playful sea otters. The zoo was donated 4 sea otters which quickly grew comfortable and so far have produced 3 baby otters!

Bengal · « **Reply #274 on:** November 10, 2006, 05:27:15 PM »

Thanks Budgielover- quite a few more to come as well

(If only Imageshack would stop acting up

)

Turning from the otter exhibit, you will follow this path..

The next exhibit is the Peacock. These colorful birds have adjusted right away to our zoo and have produced many babies. Indie, Oreo, and Choopa were the original birds and the rest are all of their offspring.

Adjacent to the Peacock are the Ratels, or Honey Badgers. These critters are very vocal so don't let them startle you! The original ratel are Rex, Rayne, and Rampage, and they have produced quite a few babies, which we have been releasing into the wild.
