I built a red fox habitat before bed too but this blows mine out of the water, is the entire fence custom?Added the first actual habitat to my park.
This is for red foxes, and i build it at an angle that absolutely sucks lighting wise
Stil gotta build up the exterior a bit with and i want so add a few signs and stuff

Thanks! Yeah its a custom fence
I Build an aviary. it’s the first time I ever build something likes this. I am not 100% happy, but it’s fine. Actually , it is for the European spoonbill and the white storks, which we don’t have in the game… so now the swans and the peafowls live here
Finally, after 345 years in the making
Guess who just spend 4 hours terraforming the entire map and copy/pasting like 10.000 trees around.
But ngl it was worth the tedium, now i can build my park with the right black forest atmosphere
Also idk why it looks so small on the picture, im standing direktly over the starting zoo entrance and those back mountaintips are right on the edge of the map

Yeah was smart enought to do thatI hope you turned the climbing toggle off
Last night I continued my Temperate section of my Asian zoo. While the habitats have been relocated to my liking, the habitats need a serious make over which I will begin tonight.
A problem I have had, Dholes. every zoo that I include Dholes, guests do not like the habitat. The habitats I make meet requirements, we all know dholes need a lot of space, this time I am determined to make dhole viewing better.
I had 10 pandas, I dropped down to 6 as I made their habitat smaller.
Originally wild boars and red deer had their own habitats, decided since they get enrichment bonus that I would give them a bigger habitat and they can share.
My cranes shared with the macaques, now they have seperate habitats. The crane habitat is big enough to accommodate more, guests don’t like it but they can get views from all sides of the habitat. The macaques are in a walkthrough habitat where I have a restaurant near by.

Thank you so much, means a lot!
Another day, another box that is somehow fun to build in planet air conditioning
Instead of rushing to get more blueprints posted to the workshop, I'm slowly working through each zoo that has viewable AC units on google maps and making the ones that are new to the collection. This means browsing google images, AC unit company online catalogues and other stuff I would of thought I would of never think of doing for the sake of realism and adding all of those details.
Today 4 boxes have been built:
2 versions of these large box units called air handlers. These have zero cooler fans but large ventilation pipes process/circulate air often on very large buildings such as elephant houses.
Also 2 cooling towers spending far too long to find the exact model makes to match the oregon zoo's tiger house cooler. The medium tower includes a raised platform with a small ladder. The tower is about 4 metres tall which is pretty big but that's tiny compared to the big cooling towers we will see when I reach the minnesota zoo for their massive tropical house.

Both the red fox enclosure and the black forest background are looking fantastic. Also, 4 hours of just copy and pasting trees is truly impressive, I wouldn't have that patience
@Captain Callum No more words needed, you really nail the hyper realism. Please don't ruin your game with so many pieces though

I'm making sure they are not that piece heavy! The big box has about 270 pieces.Please don't ruin your game with so many pieces though
Because I'm still not sure what goes into the smaller part of the lion's enclosure, I just built a penguin habitat lol.
I'm thinking with the enclosure until I know what the DLC brings. Maybe, if I'm lucky, there will be Secratary Birds and then I'd like to put them there, if not it'll be the Caracals.

Still a work in progress, but wanted to share a few pictures from a zoo about a year in the making, it's my tribute to my favorite Disney movie, The Aristocats!!!
Oh my lord thank you for you great work, I will be using these AC unit recreations for their Tropical House that I just built in-game as soon as you drop them
Today we finish visiting the penguinarium with the last habitat, the one housing the little blue penguins. They also have an outdoor area, but I forgot the baby penguins can't swim, so I had to join both parts of land so that they have enough space.
And so it is, the world of Penguins at Ovonia park is completed!

Man, I love it. My favourite character is Mike Sullivan.
(I guess you are going to upload it to the workshop? It looks like worth it)
