Thats a banger set piece for a bear habitat, just sayingThe quest of making black forest themed vistas and scenes instead of actually building the zoo continues and this might be my favorite: and old wood bridge over a (almost) dried up waterfall.
If anyone has some ideas for more let me know

Not sure yet if i want bears in the zoo, but good idea!
With all those rocks it could work for a caprine too if you use some imagination.
A bear-less zoo? Unbearable opinion
Well this is intended as a very lowkey wildpark featuring only local and semi local animals, so id have to use either grizzly or himalayan as a stand in and both of those look kinda janky. Plus im not entirely sure yet if brown bears really fit that kinda vibe.A bear-less zoo? Unbearable opinion
Thats the hidden advantage of the fact that we only started to get real european animals really late into the games developement, they all look really good.
Looking good!The quest of making black forest themed vistas and scenes instead of actually building the zoo continues and this might be my favorite: and old wood bridge over a (almost) dried up waterfall.

If you’re looking for inspiration, I would recommend looking at the Maine Wildlife Park. It’s a small zoo-like facility in Maine that is run by their Department of Fish and Wildlife for rescues. It has a very similar vibe, though slightly more American.
I think I might be overdoing the details on these 
suprisingly gutter pipes are a great material for electric cables/heating pipes. This is one of the larger 'normal' sized rooftop units that can be found attached to indoor habitat houses such as the real life example was the lion house at the Lincoln park zoo.

Planning to very soon, the base pack/blueprint is nearing completion with around 30 variations of smaller air conditioning units to start off. The detailed units such as this one in the quoted post will be available later on as part of the large units pack where standard units with a high piece count will be featured. I have 6 blueprints in the making likely to all be released this month.
Doesn't look too wide, looks like it's themed off an airport fire truck.
Indeed this is loosely based on Rosenbauer Panther.
Last night I finally began renovations on my Asian zoo
The zoo is split into 4 parts.
The welcome center with exhibits
Mongolia/Himalayan with horses camels and the mountain animals
SEA: you guessed it for SEA animals
Temperate section which uses the Korean, Chinese and Japanese like builds that also has my nocturnal house.
My Temperate section needed re work as guests were looking through my dhole habitat into my P horse habitat. Guest were overcrowding other parts while other habitats were getting no attention.
I picked up the nocturnal house and deleted the entire Temperate section with hopes to make better viewing and may convince guests to spread out more. Was a bit nervous as apart of me did not want to destroy all that I had made. Still a work in progress.

Nice! Can't wait to see it!
Finished up my Red Kangaroo habitat, along with decorating the interior of the Australia House (minus custom signs, but I'll work on those later). Not sure how I feel about the sun shade over the elevated path, but it's there for now at least.
The air conditioning megapack base pack is now on the workshop for those interested. To start things off, a blueprint with 32 air conditioning units and 61 ventilation pipes form the basis of the work in progress megapack which will likely have 6+ blueprints full of realistic scenery items to throw on your empty rooftops.

Thank you so much for this! These are great! How long did this take you to do?The air conditioning megapack base pack is now on the workshop for those interested.

4 days I think, a lot of them were copy paste with minor edits especially the conservation pipes and such. The larger air conditioning units will take much longer as they can take up to 3 hours each.
