Here are a few more updated shots of this habitat.
I added a few more rocks, vege, and scenery pieces to the center hill area.
I added rocks and scenery to the climbing structure to make it feel more like part of the environment instead of a jungle gym.
Straightened out the glass walls and built the viewing pathways that will eventually be inside the tiger exhibit building.

Did a little more rock work om this end of the enclosure. Also started working on some detailing of the viewing building that will be on the right here.
In the back of the enclosure, I reduced the size of the 'backstage' area, moved the shelter inwards somewhat, started working on the rock wall that will hide the backstage area. There will be two openings for the animals. This is what will be/would be the inside quarters for the animals in a real zoo. It will be more like a faux version in this zoo and be hidden by the building that would be there in real life (part of the Fragile Kingdom building in this zoo). I will most likely not detail the full interior with cages, etc., but you never know.
Close up of the water feature that will be on this rock wall.
Not sure if I saw this in any other threads yet, but you can hide the ugly square feeding trays under rocks to make it look more natural and they still work as they should in the game.

Here is the building behind the rock wall of the enclosure. The height of the back part (The Fragile Kingdom) of the building may be lowered later once I start adding exhibits to that part of the building. I also started the sky ride (from the master plan) that will pass over these enclosures.
The left doorway will be the entrance to The Fragile Kingdom exhibits and the door on the right is the staff entrance to all the hidden facilities. The larger grass area on the right side may someday house a smaller animal enclosure.
I'm leaving the staff side of the building unfinished for right now as I will need to add more facilities as I build out the other two enclosures that will connect to this building.
The large exhibit area may also have to be extended further to the right (in this photo) and like I mentioned...it may have to be lowered a bit as well.
