After searching through these game files, I've found one who handles the zoo staff.
I read from a problem that staff wouldn't sit on safari nor jungle theme benches.
I've found the source of this bug  
Inside the ai.z2f file you will find one named staffMgr.xml. The first lines will read like this


 


   
     
     
   
   
 



I've recognized that there are only the staffcenter and the default(df) benches listed. I've changed the first lines into this


 


   
     
     
     
     
   
   
 



Hopefully this will fix the "staff ingoring safari und jungle theme benches bug". Unfortunaly I've not been able to test this since I haven't unlocked these two theme packs. Maybe someone could do this for me..

How do you get to the xml file? I mean from the ai.zt2 to the .zml one...how do you get to that?

You must rename ther file to .zip. Then unzipp it and you will be able to edit what you like. After thaht rezip it and it should be done. For Safety make acopy of the orginal file before you start.
You've beeen talking about .zt2 files, but there are .z2f in ZT2. Probably just misspelled...
