Thing 1's NEW zoos; Now includes indoor exhibits....

Well I'm still feeling terrible but I came up with this idea last night and I just had to make it. To be honest I probably should have left it in the hands of a more skilled zoo builder (and there are plenty of them) who would have been able to do this much better than me, but I gave it a shot and here is the end result. I still need a name for the whole zoo though....

Treeptop Trek

Upon entering the zoo, you come to an exhibit surrounded by hgih walls. There is a hole in the wall near the top and a ramp leading up to it, with a brazil nut tree on either side.

You walk up the ramp and into the exhibit. You are on a sort of tunnel-like bridge, with glass sides so you can easily view the animals.

Posted Image

As you walk along, you realise you are at the same height as the tops of the trees, so that you can view the arboreal Sunda Loris in the exhibit easily.

The adorable, but ultimately secret, Sunda Loris, spend most of their time in the trees and from the elevated path you can easily see them going about their day to day lives, rarely coming to the ground.

Comments are appreciated,
Please note that because I'm feeling terrible there won't be an update 'till I'm better.

That was cool! Maybe you should have made it indoor with skylights? It looks great, anyway, very original.

May I ask where you got the brazil nut trees?

Seriously, that was cool!

((Hope you get better soon!))

Thanks man!
And I dunno--I have like 3 or 4 Brazil Nut trees ingame. I'll check though, if I find it, I'll either find where its downloadable or if I can't do that shoot you a PM.
And thanks--I'm taking medicine and sleeping pills, my Gran thinks I should see a phsyciatrist (spelled horribly wrong) about the dreams but I think thats going a bit tooo far :P
Yeah, I'm planning on making it indoor sometime.

It looks great so far T1~ very original. (: I love the tunnel winding through the exhibit giving you a better look at the animals.
For any of those remaining or wanting to remain in the community

Please visit websites Gaia or The Round Table. I doubt that many of you haven't already moved there, but I know stragglers do exist and I hope this guides you to where activity remains, should you still be interested in the game.

Thank you.

Hope you get well soon, T1!

I really like how the path winds around and how you are the same height as the trees.

That is a nice indoor area!!
Your foliage placement is excellent. :)
Light thinks it travels faster than anything but it is wrong. No matter how fast light travels, it finds the darkness has always got there first, and is waiting for it.

It's great, though it's only one exhibit so it looks kinda plain xD

Thank you everyone for your lovely comments.
I have taken all advice into consideration and I will be revamping the exhibit to include a roof, and also adding more exhibits onto it, as people have suggested.
Hopefully there will be an update tonight or on Sunday.

I can't wait to see the rennovations + the new exhibits. :)
