Quote from: genkicoll;167416
Exciting Holiday Happenings at Zoo Tek!  Today we have new downloads for both ZT1 and ZT2.

First off, the ZT2 addition.  We have a new reindeer variant done by Animalover - now you can have Rudolph the Reindeer in your zoo!

Next up are the ZT1 additions!  Ghirin has made TEN new animals!  They are:
1. The Persian onager (Equus hemionus onager or E. onager) is one of the wild equines found in Asia. This animal is well adapted to dry habitats such as scrub, desert, and dry steppes.
2.  Xenosmilus ("Strange knife") is a relatively newly described genus of saber-toothed cat.  It was a heavily built feline approximately the size of a lion. The upper canine teeth were relatively short and broad.
3. Aegyptopithecus was an early hominid that lived in what is now modern day Egypt. At that time, Egypt was much more wet and humid.
4. The genus Attenborosaurus was named in honor of British naturalist Sir David Attenborough. Its fossils were found in Europe and were originally classified as a species of Plesiosaurus. (a Marine Mania animal)
5. Barbourofelis fricki ("Barbour's Cat") was a lion-sized member of the genus Barbourofelis from the family Nimravidae. Even though Barbourofelis strongly resembled the saber-toothed cats, the nimravids are no longer considered to be true felines due to distinct anatomical differences and are sometimes referred to as paleo-sabers or false saber-toothed cats.
6. Dryopithecus fontani was the European species of Dryopithecus. Other remains of Dryopithecus species have been found in Africa. This fossil ape was present in Europe during the Miocene era.
7. Griffon vultures (Gyps fulvus) are large birds related to eagles and hawks. They are social birds and are usually found in groups.
8. Gyrfalcons (Falco rusticolis) is the largest species of falcon. This falcon is native to the arctic regions of the world. The color of the plummage is variable, with populations in Greenland and Iceland having the palest feathers.
9. The name Mbielu-mbielu-mbielu means "the animal with planks growing out of its back." This cryptid is from the Likouala swamp region of the Republic of Congo. The exact nature of Mbielu-mbielu-mbielu is unknown. Some think that it is similar to a stegosaur while others think that the cryptid is snake-like.
10. Protoceratops ("Before the horned-faces") is well known from numerous skeletons, ranging from young animals to adults. It was a common dinosaur from Cretaceous Mongolia.

I'm now starting on the Elapids;cobras,kraits & coral snakes.This family includes some of the most venomous creatures in the world.
