What did you do in Planet Zoo today?

So here's the reveal of hops & Lynx Habitat restaurant! I so hope you like the way it came out I really liked the result. So my inspiration for this restaurant is a restaurant in the cincinnati zoo and the habitat of the lynx is not so inspired I just built and that's what came out lol .. so what's the future? Basically I'm planning to build a habitat for either fallow deer or moose but need to see how it goes before new dlc will drop so until next update, great day 💚
I love the hops restaurants. Cute idea. And a nice habitat for your lynx you got there.
 
I had some free space opposite the lynx habitat to squeeze in another habitat before starting the America section, so I decided to build a giant panda habitat:

Almost finished with my Flamingo habitat, but god does it suck that we don’t have the American Flamingo. I’ll probably add in American foliage anyway even though I normally try to keep happiness at 100%. Planning to finish it up and add some hoof stock yards and a reptile house.
 
Been trying a new strategy this week. Play about 1-2 hours at most each night, work on a large zoo half that time and a smaller zoo the other half. Trying to mix it all up. I've ended up starting a new franchise zoo (because the 20+ I already have aren't enough :ROFLMAO:) that's going to be strictly Classic and Planet Zoo themed items. I'm taking inspiration from the really nice habitat idea @Nisrii posted a few days back and going to make the shelters look like houses, but brick in this case.

Working on my Rocky Falls Park that's North American focused and realizing that using the null barriers is excellent for mapping out future habitats. All you end up spending is the money for the gate, and your habitat area is marked already. I don't know why I never thought of that before. That way I can plan big and spend little. The habitats are somewhat sparse still but it works. We have the cougar/prairie dog habitats (not combined!), the arctic fox and reindeer habitats (also not combined!) and the moose habitat. I'm going to have to reshape the barriers in my big walkaround section, to make them not so lopsided, but I have the idea for a total of 7 animals in that whole walkaround section, that'll probably be it for this zoo but one never knows. Not every zoo has to be a big sprawling creation, which is something I really enjoy about this game. Think big, think small, think themes, it's all ways to play, even in franchise.

I've been giving Challange Mode a go after sooo long spent in Sandbox mode. I actually forgot that diseases were a thing and that they need to be researched. Would really love that feature to be expanded on. I've been harping on for ages about animals having traits (then Frontier went and put them in the wrong game; JWE2! Ha) Would be awesome to have built up immunity to some illnesses get passed down to offspring via acquired traits/congenital traits, rather than a blanket 'immunity' bar.

Pairing up two animals that have resistances to different diseases would give me some Creatures 3 flashbacks...

Anyway, Challenge Mode was fun...I think the key to success is Hats Fantastic.
 
I finally started the last area of my zoo: America. It will have animals from both South and North America, and since they zoo is already quite big for my computer, I will keep things easy.

The first habitat is quite big and currently holds giant anteaters, but it's big enough just in case we get capybaras soon.

Next we have a Giant Galapagos tortoise habitat, with a lot of space for shelter (it's surprising how much shelter the tortoises need, can't they just get inside their shell instead?)

Really @random goat , I missed your project so much. Just love to look at your buildings.

I finally fired up the game again and re-build the Prairie Dog habitat in Unity.







It's hard for me to concentrate currently, due to a broken friendship and me having problems giving someone up, so I lack a lot of creativity and steam. Hope any DLC to come will change that. The hyper focus while building in PZ really helps a lot.

Sorry about that. It can be hard, I know.
Hopefully the new DLC is dropped soon so you can enjoy it (and hopefully soon before my life gets chaotic again, too)

Good thoughts and big😘 hugs from the really, really BIG, Seal tank. Hope you feel better very soon, regards G PS - the water melon looks delicious too🌷
 
Lord Gushington Pipesborough's Pumping Facility expansion on Fillmore Island, in Massa-Soaka Prefecture - more Aquarium tanks are now slated - demolition orders halted - perhaps a new zoo could work on the island? An Aquarium Zoo facility . . . perhaps? The new ongoing facility maintenance upgrades will continue.
