I've been getting really inspired to make an otter exhibit, but I want to base it off a real one. Which one looks easiest to make on ZT2-

Also, which animals could you combine realistically with otters? (That scratches out ducks, because otters could eat the ducklings! )

I'm not sure you can combine many animals with otters, given their aggressive nature.
The only ones I can remember are Indian rhinos or other large ungulates (too large for those exhibits) and gibbons (in walkthrough exhibits).

You might be able to combine otters with very large fish, though with the exception of the giant otter, I don't think there is a combination of the two you could keep without it being dangerous for the otters. :/

Anyways, I think the first one looks easiest. ;)

I actually think the last exhibit is the most appealing. You should try to make that one and i think is achiveable in ZT2.

I hope to see some underwater viewing areas as well :P

If I do end up doing that one as well, I'll definitely put an underwater viewing area! Same with the first one :)

Very nice! I'd make some hilly areas with some palm trees or other tropical plants, it depends where it's located really.

So, I'm working on a zoo and I built this exhibit, originally for tapirs, but it seems a bit small for them so now I don't know what to put in it. I'm really happy with how it looks though so I don't want to rebuild the whole thing. It's divided so there are two enclosures to separate male and female.

What do you guys think would fit well?

It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop.

@Farkle - Maybe red river hogs?


On another note, I am soon beginning work on a new park, and want some advice on the logo. Does it look better with or without the white box around the bird?

What do you think? Ill also be posting the species list after I tweak it some more

Warthogs or Aardvarks perhaps? Or Babirussas?

I think it definitely looks better without white.
