Discussion Thread #10 - What is your favourite animal in Planet Zoo?

Tough choice ... I surely love the Polar foxes , because they look so damn cute and still real - it's just a cute animal ;-)
I also like the cassowary, because they look SO natural. Same applies to the crocs, especially the caiman. It looks so photo-realistic. The animators really did a great job!
 
My favorites and why:

Base Game: Okapi (exotic, mysterious and elegant)
Deluxe Edition: Pygmy hippo (cutest babies on earth)
Arctic Pack: Reindeer (the dearest deer I have ever seen)
South America: Giant Anteater (such a beautiful model - my favorite from my childhood plus they are fierce and can even fight with jaguars)
Australia: Cassowary (eyes, skin, moves)
Aquatic: Giant Otter (so fun to watch - I make exibits for them, sit, relax and enjoy them for hours)
Southeast Asia: Babirusa (weirdest animal in the game and the males when they fight with each other it’s a spectacle)
Africa: White rhino (I know that I’m repeating myself but have you seen their babies??? Cuteness personified also when the adults turn on their backs it’s a behavior so perfectly implemented)
North America: Beaver (first rodent in the game and so perfectly made - aquatic animals have their own magic)
Europe: Eurasian lynx (already mentioned that in my previous post but the sounds they can produce is the weirdest and cutest thing I have ever heard in my entire life)

I’m sorry for those who would feel annoyed by me constantly mentioning this but Malayan tapir with no doubt would be my all time favorite if it would ever get a remodel. It’s my beloved animal of all times and seeing it like it is now right now makes me really sad every time when I play the game.

Why do I love them? simple: they are the coolest creatures on earth with their colors, curious trunks and smiles they can make 🙃

Here are my favorites:

Base Game: Gemsbok
Deluxe Edition: Thomson's Gazelle
Arctic Pack: Arctic Wolf
South America: Giant Anteater
Australia: Red Kangaroo
Aquatic: King Penguin
Southeast Asia: Clouded Leopard
Africa: Fennec Fox
North America: Moose
Europe: European Fallow Deer
 
The tapir, it has so many enrichments and is very lively and fun to watch, I really enjoy making habitats for them.
 
Choosing is basically impossible, mostly because my answer will differ any day. But the Babirusa, the Okapi and the Moose are definitely up there for me! The Clouded Leopard would have been at the top if not for the climbing glitches. I also really love the Alpine Ibex, the Dall Sheep and the Pygmy Hippo, and most of the monkeys.
 
This was so difficult as I love so many of the animals in the game, but (in no particular order):

  • Both tigers
  • Both rhinos
  • Both elephants
  • Sun Bear
  • Western Lowland Gorilla
  • Clouded Leopard
  • Eurasian Lynx
  • Fallow Deer
  • Arctic Wolf
  • Binturong
  • California Sea Lion
  • Fennec Fox
  • Giant Otter
  • African Penguin
  • Pygmy Hippo
  • Komodo Dragon
  • Southern Cassowary
  • Meerkat
  • Red Ruffed Lemur
  • North American Beaver
  • Black-tailed Prairie Dog
.....to name a few!
 
Gosh, so many. SO many.

I really like the Ibex from the Europe DLC, and I've spent a considerable amout of time just following them around their habitat, watching their cute little kids clip-clop over rocks.

I also do the same for the North American cougars. Their floofy kittens are just too sweet.

And then there are the puffy baby birds. The albino peafowl chicks look like pudgy seagulls and are SO cute.

But I also really getting different colours of fallow deer and llamas, and I enjoy building climbing frames for the small, active climbers.

And watching red pandas sleep.
 
Everyone needs to stop commenting on this thread until after the next DLC is announced as it's a rollercoaster of emotions when I open the forum and see News and Announcements in bold!
Haha, learn to control your emotions and expectations then and let go of the fear of missing out. When update or DLC gets announced you'll notice soon enough ^^ It's no competition to be the first to see/read/know of the DLC.
 
Base: Formosan Bear
Deluxe: Pygmy Hippopotamus
AR: Dall Sheep
SA: Giant Anteater
AU: Cassowary
AQ: Grey Seal
SEA: Binturong
AF: Penguin
NA: Moose
EU: Lynx

P.S. Why is my toolbar greyed out? I can't use it. Anyone else have the same problem ?

Haha ............ what on earth are you on about?
 
I honestly cant just say I have 1 favorite animal... I have quite a few actually. As of late, I'd have to say that my favorite, in no particular order, is the Komodo Dragon, Nile Monitor and North American Alligator. However, I do also LOVE the Meerkat, Prairie Dog and also the Southern Cassowary and the penguins. I'm all over the map to be honest. Like I said, I can't say i have only 1 favorite animal.
