Anniversary and last DLC wishlist

Planet Zoo development is coming to an end, and I hope they go out with a bang. Here are some wishlist I hope they make this year.

Anniversary:

* The last anniversary update. With the base game still not have any walkthrough animals, Im hoping we are getting at least 1. High hopes would be birds as always, but I think Iguanas can be reworked into Walkthrough Exhibits animal.

* Keeping on Walkthrough Exhibit, beside the 12mx20m size we currently have, a new 16mx16m size with an L path is introduced. Current Walkthrough Exhibit animals are updated.

* Animals baloons are kept as a base game update.

Cross-feature with Planet Coaster 2

PC2 release date is close to Planet Zoo anniversary. I posted an idea on r/PlanetCoaster that maybe PC2 would have a pack for players who own PC2. What if it the same around. A new scenery pack if players own either PC1 or PC2.

For PC1, walls section for Western theme

For PC2, rocks corals and pipes from Aquatic theme.

Big Animal Pack

Planet Zoo last pack can be big. It is a bit hint with the size of Barnyard already, where there is large roster AND a lot of scenery items. I don't know what would go with Secretary Birds and Monkeys, but I hope they're good.

How can I fix this?

My caretakers are stuck and won’t move anymore. I can’t do nothing about it.

It happend while is was moving the animal I accidentally deleted the gate.

I tried saving and closing the game but that didn’t fix it.

My first "intricate" build

https://preview.redd.it/uczj1tsj8mpd1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=605a3f838ad2c6753b75bd60229f27518ec019ab

I've played planet zoo for a while, but never really put in too much effort on my builds... until now! This is going to be the fountain at the entrance of the zoo. Still working on the surrounding foliage but I am super proud of how it all turned out.

I can’t get transportation to work ever.

I’m at the point that I need transportation again to make access to the further points of my zoo faster. The problem is I can never get the transportation to work. I try to build a queue. I’ve tried switching the load and unload side, moving platforms but it’s always blocked. It’s honestly why I rage quit every time. I just don’t know what I’m doing wrong.

Problem with metal climbing frame and escaping animals

Hello everyone,

I build a bonobo habitat with a metal climbing structure leading outside the habitat. The goal is that the bonobos climb over the heads of the guest without being able to climb down to the ground and escape. The build is completely traversable and currently doesn't even touch the ground. I build null barriers around the structure to make sure that it is completely inside barriers. The bonobos use the climbing frame, but as soon as they climb over the visible barrier inside the area with null barriers, the game say they were escaping. Do you have an idea what could be a solution to this?

The bonobo is right outside the habitat barrier inside the null barrier area

null barrierers are around the climbing structure

Need Help Organising Animals !

So I recently wanted to adopt a more organised view to my zoos as I sort of just chucked random animals in absolutely anywhere. My initial idea was to organise them by continent and after writing down where each animal would come in each continent I noticed many overlaps and also things like polar bears appearing in the European continent which I feel would contrast majorly to the warmer side of Europe in terms of architecture and climate?? Just wondering if anyone had any personal ways they enjoy organising their zoos and if they could link them or tell me so i can organise all the animals into them 🙏🙏🙏 thank you so much

First time participating in community challenge - how to keep track?

Hey everyone

As the title states this is my first time participating in a community challenge. So far I’ve set up three enclosures and traded gold rated foxes. But how do I keep track of the breeding. I’ve read a while ago about how you should name your enclosures a, b, and c and swap out males and females in opposite direction. But do I move the baby’s when they grow up? What about the parents, do I just leave them? And how many females and males should I have per enclosure?

Also do animals age when I put them into the trading centre?

Does anyone know if there's an online list somewhere with all the conservation credit animals listed?

Like... a list with all the animals on and how much they get when you "release to the wild." (i.e. not the online market).

Faster Breeding

I thought I saw this somewhere but I couldn’t find the answer when I looked for it again so I just wanted to ask and see if anyone knew: is it true that putting juvi animals in storage allows the parents to try breeding again sooner?

Starting a new zoo, Lands of Enchantment!

Here is a poster for my newest Planet Zoo build! Usually I'm an avid lurker of this sub, so this is the first time I'm posting about my zoo builds! "Lands of Enchantment" first started as an American zoo, but now will be opening a zoo in Africa. Featuring many of the animals of Africa, Australia, and South Asia. I will post my other zoo builds, my rebuilding of the American version, and smaller builds in between. (ignore the incorrect info, this is just a template for myself)

Not done with it yet, and plan on interspersing some other types of rocks, but I think changing the type did help a good bit
