Ice Age Scenario Trouble

[crushedgurl911]

Ok I'm not a total newbie to tycoon, I got the CC a few months ago and have been figuring it out as I go, but on the Ice Age scenario I can't seem to make the giant tortises happy no matter what I do, I did what the little scientists guy said but they were still miserable. I'm very desperate and willing to try anything!

Make sure they have fresh water instead of saltwater, and give them a large exhibit. Also, try to turn the grid on with Ctrl-G and put their favorite foliage four to a square.

Just Don't Make An Island Or Else Thay Poop On It And You Have To Put The Scientist On It To Clean It Up.

Some animals will just always be angry
Once the exhibit is perfect as per Mo15's post, sell these and buy new ones. Hopefully this will win you the scenario. Otherwise, check the information panel (by clicking "I" on the scientist recommendation panel) and see what they like. This is a tricky scenario if you have no experience with Dino Digs, so you might want to try some of the new features out in a freeform game.

All the best of luck on your scenario ,
