What did you do in Planet Zoo today?

I've been away from my zoos for a few days. Today I built a keeper/power hut next to my sable antelopes. It's just a simple little area but at least I added a bit of nature and fencing :)

Had a bit of a creative blockage in Stringybark Zoo while trying to build a platypussary (yes, that's an actual term) - I had two attempts at making a platypus house (which I've done successfully before but is always hard to get right) but wasn't happy with either, and so today I tried building an outdoor platypus habitat for the first time instead. It worked out surprisingly well, despite the habitat itself being a square.

Although I did these two buildings when I started building Biopark Australia, the interiors were empty because I'm not good at doing those things. I was waiting to see if we got shop items on a pack or update, but we never go those and I need to finish my park, so here's my attempt to make simple yet decent interiors.

Started a Reptile House for the first time! The interior of the dome is not done yet, but I've tackled the outdoor area for the American Alligators already. First time building a habitat for these guys too – man why is their hitbox so annoying? I have a four-meter wide opening and the male gator can't even fit through there. I have to manually move them into the outdoor area.

Really don't know what to put inside of the Reptile Dome next. I probably want one more crocodilian (maybe the Spectacled Caiman, as they're the only other species I haven't built for yet? Or the Cuvier's Dwarf Caiman, because it's easier to build a small habitat for them?). Then at least one varanid (definitely Komodo Dragon, maybe Nile Monitor depending on space) and one tortoise (probably Galapagos), as well as couple of exhibit boxes for decoration in the center of the house. I'd love to have a little more variation when it comes to choosing habitat reptiles – habitat iguanas, more tortoises or at least one more monitor species would be great to have.

Welcome to another update of the WZO. Unfortunately, this one isn't the happiest one we've had. You see, we had just finished building The Sahara, which featured hyenas, foxes, bats, and oryxes, and we were about to construct our caracal enclosure. Unfortunately, we've suffered from severe financial struggles, and we couldn't raise enough money to support the zoo and our staff. Therefore, we had to sell the zoo to another corporation; fortunately, our good friend, Bernard "Bernie" Goodwin bought it from us, and we trust that all our animals are in the best care.



Thank you for your time reading this update, and hopefully the next zoo we begin won't go downhill like this one did...

My man you forgot to place 5 exhibits and a footcourt before going afk for 2 hours at the start of the zoo, never forget to do it like the swiss, make cheese, get money, be rich

I'm not Swiss😭🤣

Seriously though, it went downhill once I began the Sahara. Then I couldn't make enough money. I had a food court and some exhibits, but zip. Zero. Nada. Absolutely nothing was working. Then I noticed my staff was too much so I fired some. And even then I couldn't get a profit, so I gave up. This is 1 of the few times I've given up due to money issues...

I may do a successor and open one in Mexico. Not sure yet
 
Today I finished the first big project for my Wild India section:

This section begins with a large Indian Elephant and Indian Rhino House (separated on opposite sides of the building). Flamingos cohabitate with the Elephants.
First up: Indian Elephants and Flamingos.

I accidentally made the doors to the indoor area comically large for these guys, but I think it works fine anyways.
Other side of this house (Indian Rhinos!) in the next post....

OK, the other side of the Indian Elephant/Flamingo habitat is the Indian Rhino habitat.

An above-view of the layout of the two habitats. Clearly still working on the surroundings.

I am planning on adding Bengal Tigers somewhere around these habitats, and I would like to add at least one more habitat for 'Wild India'. Any ideas?
