Planet Zoo: Oceania Pack and Free Update 1.15 Out Now! 🐧

I actually wish we could make food invisible at times like this, it was the same with the African penguin. It’s just not very realistic.
I actually think it's very funny. It's little funky things like this and the way guests walk (because, let's face it, the guests in PZ walk funny) that bring a charm for me. Not like ZT2's, but it's one charm, and I hope that we get more silly/absurd things like it

I agree, plus I've worked with birds of prey before and although that is probably a bit of a stretch until you've seen a small owl attempting and succeeding to eat a rat whole you wouldn't believe how much they can stretch their mouths! Not sure if penguins have a crop like lots of birds actually (expandable sack before it gets to their stomach) I'd assume so cos they regurgitate for their chicks etc. but I'm not very familiar with their anatomy.
Edit: apparently they don't "In species like owls, gulls, and penguins, which have no crop, food is either stored in the esophagus or passes directly into the proventriculus" although as I said owls still manage to swallow massive things whole without one!
 
By the Way, regarding the Topic of Penguins: was the Bug fixed that caused that King Penguins don't feed their Chicks anymore? I remember from the last Time I've played in my Research Center that I've waited for Hours to get a Picture of it and it just didn't happen, in a Colony of over 500 Birds
 
Man, I'm late, any who fantastic dlc easily one of the best, but also one of the most useless for Non-Oceania players, kinda like how Europe Pack is useless for Non-Europe players but times 2.
 
Non-Oceania players are allowed to build their zoos in Oceania if they want to.

Both packs allow people from anywhere in the world to include such a section in their zoo. Don't have to be from a certain region to enjoy its animals.
I am sorry. I was not trying to be rude. I am glad Oceania players got a dlc just for them and I was trying to congratulate that while expressing my Opinion. please forgive me and I was not trying to be rude. with that said this is the worst dlc because there is no hyrax 😜

Kiwis, Tasmanian devils, quokkas, and little blue penguins all have a captive presence outside of Oceania. Most of the Europe Pack animals have a captive presence outside of Europe. I'm not sure what you're even talking about with this. I'm not offended, just genuinely confused how you can hold such an opinion considering it's objectively an incorrect statement to make. Like, I hated the North America Animal Pack and largely the Twilight Pack for the prevalence of NA species, but I still admit that both packs have something for me.
 
me realizing I was trying to act smart again and it falling on its face:

I do without realizing sometimes I will be honest 🙃. but with that said I guess it's just me, but I don't find much use out of the animals of both of these packs even though I love them, it's somewhat similar to the hyrax but not really;).

Flying fox can be used as a substitute for all flying fox species, which are very common in zoos, and the quokka can be used as a substitute for common small maruspials like bettongs. The Tasmanian devil is not uncommon outside of australia, neither is the kiwi limited to new zealand.

The penguin is a bit more nice, but absolutely amazing addition for oceania.
 
I love the new island map!

For anyone who's interested, the dimensions of it are approximately 336m x 296m with the entrance on the longer edge. Or 84 x 74 standard wall/floor pieces. See image below - just ignore the ugly terraforming, I flattened the map to take measurements using floor pieces. The actual map has some lovely soft gradients in it at the edges. This is the flat or sculpted temperate Oceania map*

I really like that it's smaller. That combined with the map skirt gives a less intimidating 'blank page' feel to starting a new zoo. Dimensions taken, inspiration flooding in, now to start planning phase :D

FYI - playing today, will work on updating my spreadsheet tomorrow :) or Thursday. Or later. Depends how addicted I get in my new map!

they could at least have put the map borders in the water, the map is useless like this
 
The underwater temple plants stacked on top of each other. Gives the appearance of kelp without making a new plant.
I hope they won't use it in a third Trailer because by then it should definitely be made as a proper Plant🙃

😨 they aren't? Aren't the Map Borders of Goodwin Memorial Zoo or however that Island Scenario was called, completely surrounded by Water? Why doesn't it work with this one then?

That map was just the same. An island but the sea didn't reach any of the borders of your usable area. So you couldn't make a ferry entrance.
