    I tried at the beginning to make my own railings but in the end I realised the in game railings worked perfectly well for me.

    The Cattle House is based on photos i have seen of Berlin Zoo. Especially the Bison house.

    Was going to upload some screenshot but for what ever reason they have not saved to my one drive. (on my gaming PC, not on it atm).

    How do you take screenshots without the menus on?

    If you press G it should remove them, then you can take the screenshot and press G again to bring the menu back

    The Zoo's Ape House, In my mind one of the older buildings in the zoo.

    My new entrance, found you need an entrance plaza with shops in franchise mode in order to try and stop the bleeding with refunds (thankfully these are disabled at the moment).

    Looking back

    Entrance habitat, gone with American bison. Thought about bears but I will wrap the bears around the side and back of the bison habitat.

    Overview of the zoo, trying to work out the best why to get a transport ride in as the zoo is quite large now.

    Thank you! Ideally i would have done it with metal instead of glass but they dont have that in the game. I should have said, the first pic is the orang island, the covered enclisure is for Bonobos and the bottom pic is for gorillas.

    Like the look of your zoo! How did you do the circle covered areas?

    Thanks, I like the running of the zoo so often not the creative with it. Think I might try a sandbox zoo, I have started to create buildings in sandbox and then blue print.

    Painstaking trial and error, its actually easy to do, just hard to get looking right.

    I'll have a go at explaining it, but tbh best just looking on youtube for dome buildings guides and then you can scale it down.

    What you need to do is create a cross section though the centre, group it and then then copy and rotate it till you have a full circle, then you can edit to sort out the entrance. Thats poor explanation, best looking on youtube.

    Dall Sheep enclosure. I would love some more mountain goat species or even ibex or takin. Maybe in the future they will add more.
