Since I started making Zoo Tycoon Downloads, I have done a fair amount of New Zealand Animals and Plants. Many of those were done as part of my Aotearoa Expansion Pack, some of which you can find some on Gaia. I also had a small NZ pack I released in my designing section years ago, that although the link in now broken I was able to recover, thanks to silverwren, and now some are in the download section here on TRT. I have decided to do this expansion properly. I will do it similarly to the way I released on Gaia in packs themed around Habitats. For the Fist one: Freshwater and the First Animal

New Zealand longfin eel (Anguilla dieffenbachii) or tuna in Māori.
I did one a while back using Hendrix's European Eel, but I think boa animation perfectly suit this animal, as it sometimes live in shallow water and even cross land. I wanted your thoughts on if I should use a reflection map, and which one. Right now it doesn't breed but I guess I can add that if you would like, although it will be quite tricky.

I would also like to team up with some of the New Zealand Members to help me with getting reference pictures, especially for plants. Please PM Me if you would like to help.
I am also looking for an emblem, maybe an outline of new Zealand, but maybe a fern, fish hook, or some other Māori design. The double waves behind the eel will be used for the rest of the water species, and then a new one will be behind the next part.

Nice eel! This guy can be really dangerous if wounded person enters the water where he lives.

I have finished the New Zealand Longfinned Eel

The only downside is that they must breed on land. This and the rest of Whalebites animals will be released with Countries of the World: New Zealand at Zoo Tycoon Wildlife.
