Title: pink_rhino's zoos
Post by: pink_rhino on August 31, 2006, 09:35:53 AM
Hi i'm pink_rhino and this is my first show thread so tell me if i'm doing something wrong!
P.S. I got some of my ideas from jurassicmatt's Future Zoo.
Well here goes...

Welcome to Emerald Grove- Zoo of the Future!
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder1/?action=view¤t=enlarged.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch19

Welcome to Emerald Grove. It is the year 2231. I plan to make the world' first zoo since 2118, when the meteorite fell and wiped out nearly all life on earth. Due to man's technology, my ancestors and others survived. So here I am, ready to bring back the world's lost gems. The Animals!!

So... Me and my best friend Jake started work. Soon as we get some animals, Jake will be Head Keeper.
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder1/?action=view¤t=2.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch18

Soon enough with the help from all our friends, the portal was finished! This is our ticket to time travel. It should be very precise...

http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder1/?action=view¤t=4.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch16
Next is the vet center. My sister Farah will be the onsite vet. She is a doctor at the moment.
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder1/?action=view¤t=9.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch11
After a lot of work, I mean a lot of work, the vet center was done complete with 3 intensive care rooms and a mother and baby room.

http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder1/?action=view¤t=8.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch12
To make the center complete, the Team created 6 outdoor pens.

http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder1/?action=view¤t=5.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch15

So, now to go on our first mission. We are going to travel back to the lush rainforests of Southeast Asia to try and capture the elusive Orangutan. We will travel back to 1993, bacause they became excinct in the wild in 2101 due to the desruction of the last remaining rainforest areas. The last Orangutan died in San Diego Zoo in 2137.

Right. Place and Date pinpointed, here we go!

So here we are! The tropical rainforests in Southeast Asia. No sign of any animals yet though. : :( :
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder1/?action=view¤t=11.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch9

What's this? Only a Begal Tiger! I've red about these! Oh boy! Come on team, nows our chance!
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder1/?action=view¤t=12.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch8
With 1 hansome male tiger ready to take home we start our quest to find the elusive Orangutan.

-*5 days later*-

After researching Orangutans we know they like durians and figs so we put some in a clearing and started waiting. After about an hour, 1 male and 2 female Orangutans entered the clearing. They eagerly started on the fruit.
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder1/?action=view¤t=13.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch7

We only caught two (The third escaped) and soon took them back to the camp along with the tiger.
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder1/?action=view¤t=14.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch6

-*Back at EG*-
Jake and his team have started on the new Orangutan exhibit.
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder1/?action=view¤t=16.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch4
Soon to everyone's releif, it is finished!
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder1/?action=view¤t=17.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch3

-*In Southeast Asia*-
After a good night's sleep we wake up to a spectacular sight!
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder1/?action=view¤t=15.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch5
A small crash of Javan Rhinos! The whole team look at oneanother then all grab their tranquiliser guns. After 5 long hours, the team bag 5 Rhinos. 2 healthy males, 2 healthy females and 1 female with a nasty wound. We then immediatly open the portal and return to EG.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We arrive back safely with all the animals.
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder1/?action=view¤t=18.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch2

Jake: You got 8 Orangutans! :surprise:

Me: No, only 2

Jake: What are the other 6?

Me: No time. Farah, one of the rhinos are hurt. Can you take it to the center?

Farah: Yeah. Certainly.

-*4 hours later*-
Farah: Hopefully the Rhino will be okay. It's leg was badly infected. The next 24 hours are crutial.
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder1/?action=view¤t=19.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch1

-In the next Part-

Will the injured Rhino be okay?
How will we find enough room for the animals?
Where will the portal take us?

All the animals need names. It's up to you!

It is a new day in Emerald Grove.

The Orangutan Enclosure is now the home to Tenang the tiger.
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder2/?action=view¤t=1.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch17

Two new enclosures were built for the Orangutans, Buddah and Sundance, and the Javan Rhinos, Kingo and Sohan (males), Sarah, Katherine and Kirana (females).
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder2/?action=view¤t=2.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch16
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder2/?action=view¤t=3.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch15

Kirana, the injured female made a quick recovery and soon rejoined the herd.

http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder2/?action=view¤t=5.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch13

Sooo, where to go now?:hmmm: I wonder...

Jake: What about the Arctic! I've always wanted to see a real live Polar Bear!

Me: Well then, lets get ready. Get ready Arctic 'cause here we come!
Title: pink_rhino's zoos
Post by: pink_rhino on September 01, 2006, 07:29:15 AM
Well here... Brrr!! It's freezing! Thank goodness we brought thick jumpers and lots of hot chocolate!
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder2/?action=view¤t=6.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch12
We need to find a place to camp 'cause it's gonna get dark. Hmmm, there's a perfect spot over there but first we need to cross the perilous ice-path!
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder2/?action=view¤t=7.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch11
Good. We all made it safely. Now to set up camp.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
YAWN! Well we all made it through the night and.., Whoa... Look at that!
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder2/?action=view¤t=8.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch10
A huge herd of Caribou and Musk Ox. I would love them...
Look! Over there! A Polar Bear! But we can't dart it untill it's out the water. We'll have to wait.
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder2/?action=view¤t=9.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch9
-*3 hours later*-
We've lost it. We'll have to set a trap.
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder2/?action=view¤t=10.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch8
Here we go...
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder2/?action=view¤t=11.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch7
Ooh
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder2/?action=view¤t=12.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch6
Quick shut the gate!
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder2/?action=view¤t=13.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch5
Yay! At closer inspection, we've got a boy and a girl. But they keep fighting so we put them in seperate pens. Nevermind. : :( :
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder2/?action=view¤t=14.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch4

Time to get back to the Jeep. I think that...

Worker: Oh no! Look!
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder2/?action=view¤t=15.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch3

Me: Quick! We gotta get them out, one's hurt!
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder2/?action=view¤t=16.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch2
Let's get back to EG pronto!

-In the next Part-

Will everyone return safely?
Will the Polar Bears like each other?
What about the injured Musk Ox?
What will Jake say...

I still need 4 males names and 4 female names!


Next Time:

Very cool idea, and zoo.  hint: if you'r souposed to be in the middle of the tundra or jungle, try to take pictures in the middle of the map, so not be able to see the enetrance or walls.
Title: pink_rhino's zoos
Post by: pink_rhino on September 02, 2006, 04:58:56 AM
Come on people! I need names before I can continue! (or I can choose them myself... But i'd like to think that the rest of ZA had contributed!)
I need names for 2 male Musk Oxes, 1 female Musk Ox, 1 female Polar Bear, 1 male Polar Bear, 2 female Caribou and 1 male Caribou!
Title: pink_rhino's zoos
Post by: Griffin_04 on September 02, 2006, 06:43:34 AM
how about frostbite for the male polar bear and snowflake for the female
Title: pink_rhino's zoos
Post by: germanwolf on September 02, 2006, 06:52:03 AM
How about Harry ( get it? ) for one of the male musk oxes, and Bud for the other musk ox? Nad how about Olga for the female musk ox?

Post by: Seraphii on September 02, 2006, 07:19:17 AM
Nice work Pink-Rhino! the story is great! the poor Musk ox! =(
Hope you save it!
Title: pink_rhino's zoos
Post by: pink_rhino on September 02, 2006, 07:34:01 AM
Thanks Griffin_04, germanwolf and Seraphii! I'll name the 3 Caribou so I can continue. Right after i've watched the 4th episode of Prehistoric Park. :)

EDIT: I've named the Caribou, Guy, Tiffany and Tulullah!

Farah, come here quick!

Farah: What is... Oh my goodness! Quick to the center.

-*5 hours later*-
Farah: The Musk Ox is in bad shape. She was probably attacked by a polar bear. Since the seal became extinct 10 years before the time period you entered, the Bears must have started targeting these poor creatures. She may not make it through the night. We have decided to call her Olga (name chosen by germanwolf). You got her here just in time.
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder3/?action=view¤t=2.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch15
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Some good news, while we were away Jake and his team had been busy. They had built:

http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder3/?action=view¤t=3.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch14

http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder3/?action=view¤t=4.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch13
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder3/?action=view¤t=5.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch12

And more good news, Sundance is pregnant! (She's a first time mum!)
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

With the healthy Musk Ox and Caribou (Harry and Bud the male Musk Ox, Guy, Tiffany and Tulullah the Caribou(nicknamed by me and germanwolf)) in their new enclosure
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder3/?action=view¤t=6.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch11, we can focus our attention on the unsocial Polar Bears, nicknamed by Griffin_04, Frostbite(male) and Snowflake(female).
Because they keep fighting,
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder3/?action=view¤t=7.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch10, we will put them in the new breeding compound.
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder3/?action=view¤t=8.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch9
Hopefully by the time we get back, they will             accept each other.

So, here we are! In Austrailia.
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder3/?action=view¤t=9.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch8
We are looking for the marsupial, the Red Kangaroo.
Jake and Farah think it will make a good addition to EG. Looking around, I can't see anything.:crying:
-*Next Day*-
Here is a track. we are gonna follow it. See if we can see any animals.

-*Day 3*-
Still nothing. I think we might have to abort the mission.
What's that! It's a kangaroo! Look at it go! It's so fast!
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder3/?action=view¤t=10.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch7
And over there! Wow!
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder3/?action=view¤t=11.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch6
Let's set a trap!

Right. The trap is very simple. The Kangaroos are attracted by the eucalyptus and carrots. We then shut the gates and BAM! We've got a Kangaroo!
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder3/?action=view¤t=12.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch5
Here they come...
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder3/?action=view¤t=13.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch4
Yay!
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder3/?action=view¤t=14.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch3
Let's get them into crates. There are... 3 males and... 5 females. Let's set up camp and get a good nights sleep.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-*Next Morning*-

Worker: Hey everyone! Look!

Hmm... Oh wow! A small family group of Koalas are stuck in the trap!
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder3/?action=view¤t=15.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch2
2 males and 2 females!
Jake will be happy! :woot:

Come on. Let's go home.
****************************************************************

-In the next part-


Will Sundance deliver her baby?
Will the Musk Ox, Olga survive?
Will the Polar Bears ever like each other?
I need 5 males names and 7 females names! Get naming!

By the way, Thanks beagleboy21, DingoMutt and anyone else who has commented. I love comments!

Wet Wet Wonders


Farah: I've got something to tell you.

Me: What?

Farah: Olga is doing well but her wound isn't healing. We are going to continue treating it but if it gets infected she might not survive...

Today is a big! The Polar Bears, Frostbite(male) and Snowflake(female) named by Griffin_04, have been taking notice of eachother through the fence and Jake, Farah and I have decided to
open the gate.

Awww, I hope she gets better. Maybe sticking her in with the tundra animals will help her get better, and since it will be cold Bacteria will not be able to grow.

http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder4/?action=view¤t=3.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch18
Yes! We can finally move them into their new home.
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder4/?action=view¤t=4.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch16

Keeper: Jake, JAKE!

Jake Yes? What?

Keeper: I think Kiranas pregnant!

Jake: Let's go!

-*After all the tests*-

Farah: Yes, she's definately pregnant. Her mate is mst likely Sohan. Not Kingo. I think she's definately recovered from her injury!

Me: Well, I think I should start organising my next trip.
=================================================

I have decided to go back to the wetlands of central Africa. 50 years before the time i'm travelling to, game was common all over Africa. In this period of time, game is scarce and many typeshave already become extinct. Predators like the Lion and Black Leopard have abandoned their original hunting grounds to roam Africa in search of prey. So we might see animals like the Lion and maby some of the remaining game.
Well, here goes...!
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Here we are in... A deserted marsh. Hmm, no birds, no insects, no game. Animals are scarce!

Right. We're looking for the Nile Crocodile. There is lots of water here so we have a good chance of finding one!
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder4/?action=view¤t=6.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch14
Wow! Look! 2 Flamingos. 50 years ago, flamingos lived in huge flocks. Not now though. Maybe they'll come closer...

http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder4/?action=view¤t=8.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch12

OMG look! A Wildebeest bull! All on his own. I bet there is somesort of predator around.
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder4/?action=view¤t=9.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch13

Oh look! Wrong predator. A cheetah. She looks hungry. She can't take down that bull. She's built for smaller more agile pray like gazelle.
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder4/?action=view¤t=10.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch10
She's as thin as a piece of paper! All her ribs are showing and she looks terrible. But how to catch her? :hmmm:

A simple trap. We'll put a little bit of meat in the trap and then shut the gate on her. I can't let her starve!
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder4/?action=view¤t=11.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch11
Here she comes! Can't she run!
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder4/?action=view¤t=12.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch9
Here we go.
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder4/?action=view¤t=13.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch8
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder4/?action=view¤t=14.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch7
*sigh* Now she can truly recover in the safety of EG.

-*Next Day*-
That Bull annoyed us all night! So we've decided to take him back with us. We tranquilized him.
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder4/?action=view¤t=15.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch4
And put him in a crate.
Then we saw what we wanted to see.
A lone female African Buffalo drinking without a care. And in the depths. An angry, hungry, tired croc. Waiting to strike.
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder4/?action=view¤t=16.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch5
Soon the Buffalo was no more.
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder4/?action=view¤t=17.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch6

So! Now we know there's a croc, how to catch it? With a trap!
(I took the idea from Prehistoric Park)

The croc gets funneled in, attracted by the meat. It narrows so he gets stuck. then we tranquilise him and take him back to EG!
http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder4/?action=view¤t=18.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch2
In he goes...

http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l305/pink_rhino_kl/Zoo%20Tycoon%20Folder4/?action=view¤t=20.jpg&refPage=&imgAnch=imgAnch1
Gotcha! *bang*

All ready to take back to EG. Let's open the portal and go home!

-In the next part-

Will Olga rejoin the herd?
Will the team wake up to the pitter-patter of tiny feet?
I need 2 male names and 1 female name

You won't find anything in this vast wasteland.
But, 222 years ago, this was a dense rainforest. We plan to find a rare Baird's Tapir and bring it back to EG, but in 2010, Tapirs were highly engangered and rarely seen...

Here's a challinge for you PR:

Today, plannet earth is domonaited by humans, there are over 6,000,000,000 of us, but what would happen to the plannet if there were no people :blink: jut imagene the people were to dissapear from this plannet :unsure:. Many familliar animals:

The big cats:crying:

The bears:crying:

And the wolves, already in danger already under threat from us will dissapear in a few thousand years:crying::crying:

The plannet,and the surviveors will carry on without us and evelution will create new and bizzare life forms.

Here are the periods from now:

5 million years from now(ICE world)
100 million years from now(HOTHOUSE world)
and 200 million years from now(NEW world)

tell me if you want to learn more about these periods PR.
Title: pink_rhino's zoos
Post by: Tiger Prince on February 02, 2007, 01:57:29 PM
Ok, heres the info:

5 Million years:The earth is plunged into another ice age,but however not every where in this ice age is a frozen wasteland;

From:
Meditteranian sea to Salt dessert
Amazon rainforest to Amazon Grassland
Kanzas to Cold dessert

100 Million years:Presents the opposite challinge to life:This world is hot. Earth is diffrent because not only the move of continents but the rise in sea level.There are many swamps that look like dry land. But thats not all:Antarctica is now a Tropical rainforest, And there is a big pleatu with ultra violent light.And there is a new Mass extinction!!!

200 million years:The Earth is now unrecognizable.The earth is now mostly dessert because the land is blocked from the moisture of the Global ocean However, moisture from the global ocean up north create a forest where it rains everyday.And then Lichen trees (Evolved from lichens that once grow on moldy logs) Now reach up to 3 Meters high!!!

But sorry:uhuh:,you said the amazon is a dessert. How can a dessert become a Grassland:angry:!?! Also you said all the life forms on earth are destroied. All the animals in these future worlds have ancesstors, They arn't made from thin air:angry:!!!

Oh well,let's get on with it:wink:.

I'm not entirely sure what you are raving about, but please let's leave the "info" giving to Pink_rhino...this is their current project thread; let THEM tell the story, hrm? Also, its not very nice to say "tell me if you want more info" and then not allow the person you are asking to actually answer before you go ahead and do it anyways. Thanks! Mika
