As a kiwi myself my only tiny gripe is that in New Zealand, you can pretty much only find kiwis in forest areas, lots of trees, tall grass and places to hide away from predators. We don't have many caves and dry, arid areas here, and where we do we have to many hawks and wild cats out and about that would stop the kiwis from breeding and growing. Everything looks amazing though, keep up the good work

[@Diego-ye2os]

also the desert area for the little blue penguin doesnt fit too well

As a New Zealander, this enclosure hurt the soul

[@COVNT_Meesix]

This zoo is gold. Although, as an Aussie, zoos keep dingoes in tropical habitats as they are more commonly found in our tropical areas, but still can be found in temperate and desert areas - just more common in tropical areas of Northern Australia. They can also be found in Southern New South Wales (A state in Australia) in high mountain ranges where we get snow. Zoos also put plastic around the trees of koala habitats instead of rubber. Koalas can just sink their claws into the rubber and keep climbing. Obviously, there are no plastic pieces in the game but good job!

[@the.aardvark]

I love this! I like seeing people build not just sections, but entire zoos based on Oceania... I am currently building one too, in which habitats are grouped into smaller sections surrounded by water, each representing a real-life island (Rottnest, Tasmania, New Zealand, Papua-New Guinea, Australia)

[@aniixgaming]

thanks! I'm happy you enjoyed it :) and it sounds like your project is really cool too!

i def think that the koala habitat is way to big but it kind of makes sense, koalas and kangaroos are the face of OCE

[@sukiyoyamada2234]

“koalas and kangaroos are the face of OCE” … Wow..what a piece of shit statement to make? As if other countries don’t exist in Oceania? Or furthermore that there is literally a big ass Kiwi in the thumbnail. Koalas and Kangaroos are the face of Australia, do t generalise the rest of the archipelago that forms Oceania.

[@squidman3484]

​@@sukiyoyamada2234geez man chill out

[@greyhughes3018]

I don’t play planet zoo very much, but in real life, that’s actually less. They would be bored since they would explore the entire habitat almost immediately. It needs to be larger irl but in planet zoo idk

[@SnakesDragons]

Screw it’s koala mansion all the way

[@megazillasaurus]

I think all habitats are too small lol

[@yuricooper]

i think it is important to note that many of these animals do not live in a desert, flying foxes live in trees outside, they would not survive without fruit trees, in a cave. tazzie devils and platypus as well as penguins live in the eastern states (or south western western aus) where it is either tropical (north) or mountainous, and plains (sydney - melbourne), taz also is very much the opposite to a desert, lots of trees, lots of rain, very cold (compared to Australia) it still does look amazing and definitely fits a theme... although the theme leaves out a majority of the biomes that these fauna strive in, giving them their worst conditions, besides urban or pollution, ig.

[@aussieaxolotl1671]

THANK YOU OMG I was dying as I was watching this, we have a lot of flying foxes where I live and seeing my babies get shoved into a cave broke my heart :( The zoo is absolutely beautiful but it completely ignores the environmental needs of a lot of the animals

[@nyx-nuri.08]

@@aussieaxolotl1671it’s a game, they’re not real, you’re being so ridiculous

[@aussieaxolotl1671]

What, the real-life animal grey-headed flying foxes that, while now growing in numbers, were endangered for a very long time particularly through the majority of my childhood, and that I've grown up watching before bed? I know that it's a game, that's bloody obvious, but I'd like to think that any game dev company making a *zoo sim* would make sure that their animal habitats were accurate to the environments they live and thrive in. @@nyx-nuri.08

[@DreamVisitor-jk7cr]

@@nyx-nuri.08 Well, its not ridiculous. A lot of people focus on giving the animals the habitat they need, rather than the looks. The game is about having fun and making a zoo, although to have fun some people want their animal to be happy! So hopefully you now understand??

Looks amazing! I've really got to work on upping my build game, and am a bit sad that I had started my new building project just before the Oceania pack was announced, so it will take me a very long time to get to the new items! The bats cave looks insanely good as well, you should feel very proud about that exhibit! It reminds me about some of the exhibits I've seen for bats from World Class zoos in America.

[@aniixgaming]

Thanks so much!!!

[@WARCRIMES.0]

16:35 Fun fact: Flying Foxes don’t actually live in caves, they live in a standard outback environment

Such a nice zoo, a lot of very unique animals in the region and it makes it work well with a unique Oceania zoo. (Still hoping for tree kangaroos someday.)

[@aniixgaming]

Thank you!!! I am also hoping for tree kangaroos!

im very new to the planet zoo community but this is one of the best zoos ive seen so far! I love the rock work and terrain overall!!

[@aniixgaming]

[@sparrow838_]

GREAT job on this! Loved seeing all of the enclosures condensed in a snappy, fun video. My favourite enclosure if probably the saltwater croc, I love the waterfall running out of it and your use of the European bridge platform wood along the edges. Can't wait for the workshop download and the tour!

[@aniixgaming]

Thanks so much! I appreciate the support!!

[@Humerum0]

I think it's important to note that a lot of these animals don't live in arid environments. For example, the cassowary lives in areas where you can barely see the sky because of the dense canopy above. I'm not sure if that would be possible in planet zoo but your exhibit still looks great :)

[@OP-zg5vq]

Even if you did start building before the dlc dropped it's still insane that you got this out so fast while still making everything look this good. I just barely finished building for the penguins and that's as far as I've gotten😅

[@archienoyce2453]

[@aniixgaming]

Thank you! Glad you like it!

[@TheRandomZooVisitor]

If you wanted to expand it without mods I might recommend adding animals invasive to australia, ie. Red foxes, camels, water buffalo, and fallow deer. I am currently working on a no blueprints, vanilla, full franchise zoo and while only 1 episode is out, it will eventually feature 8-9 episodes. I call it the Kat Dory Zoo

[@mac-v2b]

Love this!!! but there's a couple mistakes such as grouping tasmanian devils together as in most cases the devils will fight eachother sometimes resulting in one of them dying and the kiwi enclosure is a bit off as kiwi usually hide in logs and other small spaces, other than that this great!

[@bonafide4874]

Clicked on this video because I saw the kiwi haha! I'm from NZ and it's rare I see games or Americans know/ talk about the kiwi! Also, I don't even play Planet Zoo (though I've seen a few videos of people building zoos haha) but I would also be PISSED that this Oceania pack came out and they didn't include echidnas! I'm an avid Sims player but hate Sims 4 because of the shitty packs that come out that don't include enough content/ skim over actually interesting content, and the lack of echidnas reminded me of this haha, especially since it included like every other type of notable Australian wild life. Plus, I think echidnas and platypuses are the only monotreme species left so it's odd they would include the platypus and not the echidna also. Then again, I think people are more familiar with platypuses because 1. they're weird (duck bill, beaver tail, venomous, egg laying mammals) and 2. because of Perry the Platypus. Also, I don't know if there's already a pack or mod for this -- I'm certain others have already thought of this idea -- but it would be super cool to have a pack for extinct animals. Specifically, they could even have a pack devoted to extinct Oceanian animals, since Australia has a lot of extinct megafauna and NZ as well has various extinct moa species plus Haast's eagle (a massive eagle which was a predator of the moa). Australia as well has some cool extinct species, specifically megafauna -- I think there were giant snake, giant crocodile, massive wombats, marsupial lions, like the thylacine, geyornis (a bird similar in size to the ostrich), and the giant short faced kangaroo.

Surprised you didn't include Camels. While introduced and a pest to some, they're an iconic Australian animal. Here's hoping we get just a few more Oceania animals. There's gonna be atleast 3 more dlcs and 1 or 2 anniversary animals I believe. Maybe more obscure species. Be it birds, reptiles, marine animals of any group that are large enough to be a habitat animal, marsupials, or large non-bug Invertebrates.

[@limitless420hater]

cool habitats but they dont fit what the animals really live in, kiwis live in very densly forested areas also it needs soil and mabye some leaf litter, fruit bats live sort of like crows, hanging in the trees in large groups. the wombat encloser looks fine but they wouldent be in such dry desert places, dingo encloser is good , koala is good, croc encloser is ok, quoka could have a lot more trees and a rainforest type of vibe or just some lush tall grass with some nice bushes, i love the emu and kangaroo one, same with the wallaby encloser, the penguin exibit could really use some work. i have worked with these animals myself in the wild and they are coastal animals that live in rocky seaweed/kelp forest habitats, more grey and ragged rocks are needed and very smal hidey hole caves where they would nest would be good as they love to nest in very small spaces, also 3-4penguins would be better as they are not the most social penguin species , tending to be solo or with there mate and/or chicks. the cassowary is ok, and again with this desert theme, it only realy worked well with the kangaroos and the emus . platypus is fine, the snake ones cool but i think a subtle urban theme could have been nice. and finaly, the tasmanian tiger needs a damp darker forest with soil much like the kiwi but less. i dont want to affend im just here to give critisism
