Has anyone been able to get you educational exhibits fame bar thing up to 100%?  I can get everything else up to 100%, but my educational seems to stay about 75%.   :blink  I use only trees from where the animals are from, I have done everything I can think of to get it up but I can't seem to do it.  Does anyone else have this problem? :8

I haven't really paid attention that myself...lol.. but I do remember for one of the photo scenarios it wanted me to create a mixed predator/prey exhibit and take a picture for some high school educatione exhibit and it helped guest education...so maybe some predator prey exhibits...also I'm pretty sure (but don't quote me) that guests really like mixed exhibits period, as long as they're all from the same biome.

Also, maybe tour guides? I don't use them myself.. but it might help?

Really, no matter what I do I have the same problem with you.  I always have plenty of educators, mixed exhibits, plenty of toys and stuff for the animals and dense forests.

Not really sure what else I need to do.

I find that not putting toys in helps, becos they stand out from the natural habitat, using only the shade structure as a shelter for animals that can, and giving them their food in logs, subtrate piles, and those sorts of things helps.

First of all use only trees/plants from the animals continents. Second make sure any object you put in, that guests give a green message when it's used, not white and definitely not red. :lol

Scratching posts are good things to use...Not too colourful, but keep in mind that they can also clean themselves on trees.

I have never fully filed the education meter. I don't really care about those meteers.

I can never get it full, either.  It used to really bother me, I really wanted a more thorough breakdown of what is good for educational and what might be bringing it down.  But now I pretty much just use Freeform and gave up on making the bar full!!!
