🦩 Building a Stunning Asian Otter & Tapir Habitat with Underwater Viewing | Planet Zoo Gameplay

[@rainumphrey8725]

Adding more donation bins would make you a lot more money!! Most of my money in franchise mode usually comes from donations

[@DeLadysigner]

Oooh we have tons of donation bins around every habitat.. you sometimes just dont see them because I hide them away in rocks, walls, etc :) will show that in the next episode as I indeed didnt really tell that hahaha. Same goes for normal bins btw :)

[@michealasmith3104]

I didn’t realise the do not disturb signs actually worked. Big help! I also find putting shy animals right at the back and the more confident animals towards the front helps because there is less congestion I also prefer having back drops in the exhibits because it gives it a natural looking background All in all though, this is a fantastic looking franchise zoo

[@DeLadysigner]

Yeah, I should have looked more into the shyness of the animals, lol.. we definitely have struggles here, haha! Exhibits are only there temporarily, hehehe.. want to create an awesome reptile house in a later stage ❤️ Glad to hear you are enjoying the series ❤️

[@nanfredman1991]

Sometimes the only help for stress is one-way glass barriers. :( Signs may or may not help with a popular habitat....

[@turtleofthemoon]

I haven't watched too many Planet Zoo videos in the past but this series showed up in my recommendations and I have been loving it. Your energy is so much fun, and the way you react to the cuteness of the animals makes me smile every time. Your habitats are beautiful and I can't wait to see how this zoo grows!

[@DeLadysigner]

So happy to hear you are enjoying the series 😃❤️ thank you so much 😘

[@megharts_]

This is looking soo so great!!! I love how you’re taking this one a lot slower, really taking your time with it and not adding loads of animals each episode! Not sure about others but I definitely prefer that, not necessarily adding animals every ep but really taking your time over the zoo aesthetics and the management too!! Thanks so much for the great videos 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡

[@DeLadysigner]

Glad to hear you are enjoying this series as much as I do ❤️

[@slykode9490]

Another tip with power, espacelly in Franchise mode. We pay the production of energy with the transformers and it is sometimes annoying when we want to make money. But there is a solution by placing next to the transformers, a wind turbine or a solar panel and it reduce the amount of energy produced by the transformer and thus saving money. The game will first use the renewable energies because of their smaller radius (no cost) and then the transformer to supply the energy further.

[@falloutlaura1033]

your little theme song is so amazing. its the perfect cozy vibe. i just woke up to it playing since i passed out watching this series

[@BrandeeHiller]

I'm behind on episodes and just catching up tonight. I am making a zoo with all habitats that people can walk in to, and I've noticed the do not disturb signs work really well!

[@DeLadysigner]

Ooooh thats great to hear!! Have fun with your zoo ❤️

[@carnogod3834]

Absolutely love the tapir signs maybe u can do more of that so its like some sort of scale meter for people to appreciate how big there when you are right next to it instead of it not looking as majestic cuz it does kind off feel a bit more tiny and that makes it a bit less interesting in my opinion if you aren’t aware of the size Love the tropical style since its franchise cuz u can appreciate everything wit what u have so it doesnt go to fast maybe also make a more asian prat and pls ad the jaguar someday keep up the amazing work❤️🥹

[@erikrosch6047]

The zoo is looking really good! :) And so many babies! :o :D You should put bugs in the exhibits, because they breed like crazy and by selling tham you'd make some money faster.

[@DeLadysigner]

Oooh hmmmmmz... so better to earn money by selling exhibit animals than with donation boxes 🤔

[@tashygreen8246]

hello. i know that you dont like the donation boxes as they are. you can download some covers from the workshop. they have loads of different ones. they also have sets to download that has like 30 different ones to fill the aesthetic of what youre building. just not sure whether you knew.

[@jenniferbeer1290]

You have a great eye for design my lady. Was thinking with the tapirs maybe u could create a natural barrier inside the habitat to stop them getting close to the people, like rock work in the water maybe.? So like a habitat inside a habitat…Would hate for u to have to put glass everywhere. Always love your vids thank u for sharing 🥰

[@DeLadysigner]

That would have also been a very good idea! For now I think we were able to fix it with the one sides glass, but will definitely keep this in mind ❤️

[@arthurmatheus8775]

this staff area reminded me of when I was a child, my parents took me to the zoo in ribeirão preto (brazil) and the zoo had all this tropical beauty and at the same time an almost abandoned place you know? it was very cool

[@guilhermegiuseppe3027]

HI, I I'm love with your tiger habitat, it is just so beautiful, congrats on it. I think for you to get more money, you should put more donation boxes, and put literally in the middle of where the crowd are, in the viewing areas of course. I did that in my zoos and I got so much more money that this sector was never a problem anymore

[@DeLadysigner]

The donation boxes are mostly hidden in walls and stuff :) I hate the look of them and they are just so big, lol!

[@saflip969]

Money will never be an issue as long as you are loving and enjoying what you have done. 😎😎

[@saflip969]

Hint: the more exhibits you put up = $$$$

[@SpikedHairVSGravity]

The best way to make money at the start of a zoo is to get a SMALL animal with HIGH appeal, preferably a single one that lives a long time. Also, a tip, just throw a Galapagos tortoise into a South American exhibit and an Aldabra into an African exhibit. It literally doesn’t matter, they can live with cheetahs and tigers and just not get eaten. Here is my personal opinion of the zoo thus far: -otters and tapirs, efficient (low-medium upkeep, medium-high appeal) -flamingoes, neutral (medium upkeep, low appeal) -tigers, neutral until they have cubs (high upkeep, high appeal) -fennec foxes, efficient until they had kits, then neutral to inefficient (low upkeep, medium appeal) Best “money making” animals imo: -Aardvark -Red Panda -Arctic Fox -Koala -Binturong -Meerkat -Giant anteater The best overall species to start out a franchise zoo with is a small Aardvark and Meerkat habitat with one viewing angle so they don’t get stressed. Bonus enrichment, cheap feed, low habitat space, both high appeal. The reason I say this is because your highest cost with animals will be the feed. Small animals and herbivores have the cheapest feed and bring in the most guests per money spent caring for it. Big cats, dogs, and big herbivores will cost a lot of money in feed. In fact, even herbivores like bongoes, Nyala, tapirs, warthogs, moose, and ostriches are extremely efficient to just have one of in a smaller, private habitat. They’re totally happy to just be alone, and the amount of money they need to upkeep always pales in comparison to the donations you get if you keep them happy and give a good viewing spot. Crocydylians and platypuses are also amazing little things that require little space, but the reason they’re not on my “starter species” list is because of the upstart cost being at least +2000 for the water treatment. Keep them single though unless you have a lot of money because the crocodilian babies take a lot of money. DONT: DO NOT start out your zoo with a large carnivore. You will go in the red with the sheer amount of meat they consume. DO NOT allow your arctic foxes to breed at the start of a franchise zoo. They have 4+ kits per breeding and the feed cost is not worth the amount of guests they bring in. DO NOT GET ELEPHANTS, LARGE HIPPOES, LARGE PRIMATES, OR DOGS until your zoo is functioning at… well my rule is at least +30k a year. All of the dog species are neutral or inefficient, and elephants usually cost more money than they make. Personal numbers: My elephants made me 16k in donations last year and cost 17k per feed, usually twice a year. The other animals are carrying my elephants. This, versus my SINGLE platypus, who costs $600 per feed and made me 13.5k in donations. And my little meerkat and aardvark exhibit, with like 8 meerkats and 2+a baby aardvark, costs me 1k per feed and makes me 27k a year. Yes, my little 700m2 aardvark and meerkat habitat is COMPLETELY carrying my entire African Elephant breeding program in its 8000m2 sprawling plains. Small tips: -tortoises are your friend, put them in exhibits they will fit into. Make sure you don’t put them with a “confident” animal because they will get stressed -imho flamingoes aren’t worth it, you need too many of them and the pretty habitats you want to build for them stress them out because they’re “neutral” and not “confident” -single animals and bachelor groups are not illegal, I promise. Babies are expensive. One gharial is more efficient than two adult gharials and seven babies you have to take care of for like 15-20 years. Sorry for the essay. I love watching Lady’s videos and I’m not great at decorating, but I have the tycoon mode down so I have opinions.

[@DeLadysigner]

[@miguelmattar6803]

The easiest way to get a white cub is to breed the white male with one of the female cubs when they grow up. Couse you know for sure they got the “white genes” from their father. I know it’s inbreeding, but it’s really not a big deal considering they all have gold status. So, basically, there won’t be bad genes to be reenforced by the inbreeding. You’ll actually get the opposite. Some breeders do that on propose in real life, and it definitely happens in nature.

First of all your zoo looks beautiful. Second, the flamingoes had low welfare because of a lack of enrichment, not stress. Add more enrichment or reduce your number of flamingoes. Also exhibits don't bring in a lot of money unless you are breeding the animals. And then of course selling your surplus.

Just make a seperate breeding zoo with simple functioning habitats, pick animals that breed fast, put everything on full speeds, and then sell the offspring when they grow up on the market or release them in the wild. I honestly dont know exactly what animals these days are worth the effort and time. Back in the days I earned quite some money buy breeding tons of tigers and other big cats and then just release them in the wild 😊 but no idea if they are still worth that much nowadays 😊
