Here's a tip! If you have a large animal and small animal mixed exhibit, like a giraffe and gazelle , you can use elevated pathways as a sort of filter across the exhibit. The giraffes cannot pass it while the gazelles can!

wow, thats a grwat idea :wtg , i will try it out in my zoo, with my gazzelle giraffe elephant mix, you could put giraffes on one side, and elephants on the other, so the guests have a good view on either side :wtg

Yep! I thought it wa a spiffy little trick.

THats a very inovativ idea, if you ccan manage to get a fence to pif tightly under a path, it makes a great animal house

lol imagine the dinos with a elevated walkway that short
Guest 1: hey look theres a t-rex right over there and it sure seems hungry
T-rex 1: hey look a guest and just at the right hieght
Narrator: t-rex 1 walks over to guest 1 and guest 1 watches in amazement how the t-rex moves. T-rex 1 then stops looks at guest 1 and then guest 1 realizes his fate. T-rex 1 grabs Guest 1 in the mouth and eats him whole :sick
T-rex 1: that sure was tasty :sick
Guest 1: it sure is dark in here
They better add some nice animatons for when dinos cross a guest on a elevated walkway! MUHAHAHA

Lol that reminds me of a part in JP2. Anyway fences working on this princalpe are used in africa to kept elephants out of areas but let smaller animals in.

i used it before. but that was by accenident. i always wondered why the giraffes couldn't reach the water on the other side of the exhibit!

MinGraphics · « **Reply #9 on:** May 31, 2006, 01:15:36 PM »

nice trick, does it work on the elephants in game to?

Nique · « **Reply #10 on:** May 31, 2006, 07:07:00 PM »

Clever... very clever

Panda King · « **Reply #11 on:** June 03, 2006, 09:03:46 PM »

Dunno, Min. Try it and let us know!

zoomamamama · « **Reply #12 on:** June 04, 2006, 09:24:26 PM »

Ok, I'm stuck. How do I even make elevated pathways? I simply have ZT2, can they be done on this game? Sounds interesting.
TIA

ShenTirag · « **Reply #13 on:** June 05, 2006, 02:23:29 AM »

zoomamamama, you need the Endangered Species expansion to make elevated paths.

zoomamamama · « **Reply #14 on:** June 05, 2006, 08:08:20 AM »

ok, Thanks. I'm getting it this week:happy:

I know this isn't the right place to post this, but how did you take a picture like that?

GhostWolf · « **Reply #16 on:** July 21, 2006, 05:52:05 PM »

Just press the Print Screen button, it could be differnt on other keyboards but on mine its at the top right and it says Prt Scr

african_elephant_2006 · « **Reply #17 on:** July 21, 2006, 08:11:04 PM »

All right, I'll try that. Thank you!

dinwrest · « **Reply #18 on:** August 03, 2006, 05:18:59 PM »

And you then you have to paste it in MS paint or something else. Incase you got confused. I did this by accident once :laughing: I think it will work with anything taller than the lowest it can go. I'm gonna go experiment . For science!

AnimalKeeper95 · « **Reply #19 on:** August 04, 2006, 11:57:38 AM »

I have a question, besides both giraffes and elephants, is there any other big animals that it can work on?

alloy61 · « **Reply #20 on:** August 04, 2006, 12:02:45 PM »

I imagine it would work on the dinos too - though I do wonder if they would see the path as a food tray!

AnimalKeeper95 · « **Reply #21 on:** August 04, 2006, 12:04:32 PM »

Maybe, if you get it low enough, I've noticed that the camels are pretty big too, maybe it will work.

Alpha Dilophosaur · « **Reply #22 on:** August 04, 2006, 12:06:34 PM »

Ah, neat trick. I think BF did that in this screenshot:

(has anyone gotten the paths to go that low?

)

AnimalKeeper95 · « **Reply #23 on:** August 07, 2006, 02:46:48 PM »

Nope AD, I never got my paths to go that low, maybe it will work on moose and camel if it is that low!!! P.S. Maybe it was just a earlier version of ES?

Spirit of the Night · « **Reply #24 on:** August 07, 2006, 03:10:32 PM »

I love this idea!!!

Does anyone know which animals the elevated path blocks?
