Then it was almost time for Eco-Living to release, so I had a couple of hours to kill and wasn’t ready to start another franchise zoo. All of the other animals that have died have died from old age. Wali, the monitor, immediately killed Manya, the gharial. While putting the Gharials back, I accidentally added a Nile Monitor to the same habitat. Apparently I didn’t pay attention when I pulled them out, so anyways. I was pulling seed animals from my previous zoos, and then I was putting the siblings back so there wouldn’t be any inbreeding. I suck at the water building, but I did get a lake and a “river” set up here.Īnd I had the first animal death that was completely my fault. This zoo is all the species that require water as part of their habitat. Each challenge, I will add another habitat and the required species to this zoo. It is possible there will be 4,800 primates born today before the challenge ends. Meaning it is June 6 and we are at 92% collectively. The challenge ran from June 1-6, and the community finished above 92%. I contribute 6-7 gold-rated babies, collect the first couple rewards, along with the achievement for participating in a community challenge. So I create a zoo with a single species – Red Ruffed Lemurs. My first challenge is to breed 60,000 Gold-rated primates. Everyone playing in franchise is counted for their contribution. They are every two weeks and tend to be breed 60,000 of a certain animal. This is the zoo I will use for community challenges. So all white animals in an all white place. It is placed in the Tundra in Antarctica, because I love the pain.
It will be used as I find albinos that I can add to the zoo. I took no pictures because this zoo is barely started. This is the first one to come through and no one had heaters. Winter storm and all of the animals lost their minds. I think this really looks like a college campus. Joining the cats are both species of Tortoise, Peafowl, and Chinese Pangolin. I have the entire green plain to build on, and I am only using a fraction of the total.Īll of the habitats are full. Now to fill in the empty spots in the middle. I find him a mate, and the first habitat is open.Īll six cat species are placed – Jaguar, West African Lion, Cheetah, Bengal Tiger, Snow Leopard, Siberian Tiger. Ziyad was born in the last zoo and he will be the first to be placed in the new zoo. For this zoo, I decided to use all of the cat species as the anchors. Oseye was the last born, and completed the achievement for me. The oldest had good genetics but not over 90%. Admittedly, Oseye was one of four for this pregnancy. So all the work I did, getting the genetics was completed through inbreeding.
And I just have to laugh because the mama, Asha, inbred with her brother before I could get him out of the habitat. Albinos are actually fairly common in the game, so you will see those a lot.īaby lions, and the mama, doing what cats do. There is also an achievement for breeding both species in the same zoo. I have both kinds of elephants – Indian and African. I started by pulling the best of the best from my first two zoos, and then watching the trading for good animals to breed. There is an achievement for having an animal that has over 90% in each of the four genetic categories: Size, Longevity, Fertility, and Immunity. This zoo is all about getting the “perfect” genetics. I also am testing out the grid, which means I am back to the squares.Īdded drink and food, and you would think everyone was starving.Īll eight species have been added to the zoo. While in reality there are many, in the game there are eight. This zoo are the species listed as Critically Endangered. I got tired so the last few habitats are not so pretty. The jaguar is up the tree, and yes they can get over the fence if the tree is too close. These are albinos.Īdding to the zoo, one species at a time. For this zoo, I completed all the mechanical and all the diseases, along with about 20 animals. I haven’t taken a lot of pictures, but here are the ones I did take. So far, I have opened seven zoos and maybe half of the species available. There are two achievements that will take time – Create 25 zoos and fully research everything in game – animals, diseases, mechanical.
After finishing the career mode, I decided to move into the franchise mode, and to complete as many of the achievements as possible.
