PLANET ZOO | EP. 54 - A LEAP-ARD FORWARD (Franchise Mode Lets Play)

[@PartyElite]

Oh man this one just finished processing 5 minutes ago. Cutting it *real* close. Remember to drop your names (as a reply to this comment if you want to make my life easier

[@ahmedmazeed]

I hope i can get a job.. Sent my resume for your perusal. Fingers crossed. For your consideration boss. #partyelite

[@Babs2243]

I would love to have someone or animals named after me. Barbs as a keeper would be my preference but I would be happy for anything. I’m assuming that you mean people are subscribed to your channel when you say channel members?

[@samiratavares8268]

My favourite series❤️ my name is Samira but I would like to use my nickname Tcha as an animal or worker. My fave animal enclosure is the indian elephant one for now😊

[@kikibennett8788]

Appreciate the dedication to your upload schedule Party! Cheers!

[@tdwtgirl9311]

Crikey Creek keeper Lexa Jones please ☺

[@mtb_gravity8874]

The reindeer habitat should have a crashed sleigh so it looks like the reindeer are walking around it

[@lalacustard]

FroggyAZ ! 😂😂😂 love this

[@shemer00]

I love this idea and some presents added!

[@nuitarik]

Great idea indeed

[@Sand_and_company]

Then where is Santa DX you're telling me he crashed and isn't seen until Christmas again? That sounds scary from a child-like perspective... Also, it's spelt sleigh

[@nuitarik]

Sand Dreemurr Steele oh it’s a bit morbid but it’s also great 👍

[@NEEDANIMEWORLD]

Don’t forget to get another female wolf

[@abs-t8v]

Party, quit apologizing for advertising yourself!! You're great, this series is great, and listening to you plug yourself is the least we can do to keep your channel going :)

[@abs-t8v]

Also, the flags are prayer flags :) "Traditionally, prayer flags are used to promote peace, compassion, strength, and wisdom. The flags do not carry prayers to gods, which is a common misconception; rather, the Tibetans believe the prayers and mantras will be blown by the wind to spread the good will and compassion into all pervading space." -from wiki

[@bestofsmall]

@@abs-t8v what a lovely thought! I like that thank you was curious what they were for!

[@Molscheira]

@@abs-t8v That's beautiful! Thank you for sharing and I totally agree that Party should plug himself.

[@PartyElite]

Oh I didn't realize the flags in game were actually supposed to be prayer flags so I didn't say anything! Especially since they're in the "India" section. Very neat!

[@abs-t8v]

@@PartyElite Ohhhh that makes sense. You may be right, they might not be. But I say we head cannon them as prayer flags, cause honestly they look just like them

[@zsmfazithali]

We need a episode of you just watching all the Animals interact with their enrichment items 🤩😂😀

[@lalacustard]

Fazith Ali Zakir Sunday special??? 😏😂

[@nisargbhavsar25]

Rightly said and that too with a face cam

[@ashleyhoran5388]

I would watch the crap outta that

[@Cherrykitchen]

Right now the mountains just abruptly end at the railroad track. I think the mountains should extend further east, and the train either passes through a valley or build east onto the mountain and create a tunnel to the panda stop. For your mountain peaks, just look to the horizon in game and remove every single pointed pyramid top once you sit down to shape the mountain range. Don't snow leopards need climb proof barriers? Wherever you place the gondola ride, please use it for guests to view the habitats it passes over (not around, over), not just a way to get around the zoo. Could you name the exhibits? It could continue the **punny ** themes of the habitats, but even just labeling them for what is inside (acronyms and abbreviations work) would be better that exhibit #127. Are there any more exhibits that can be placed down for the newer sections of the zoo?

[@LeilaniMarie1]

Cherrykitchen i suggested that the gondola ride go through the mountains (extending the mountains east like you suggested) and that gives gondola riders exclusive views by adding “windows” (similar to grizzly grove, polar bears, and wolf rock)

[@PartyElite]

Hmm let's see how we can extend that mountain range... And good point about the exhibits! I keep forgetting to name them i should do that soon

[@emilyclark7774]

There are 9 reindeer :) Don't forget a new female timber wolf and to sort out the male to female ratio of the pronghorn antelope. I always look forward to your new episodes! Thank you for having the most consistent and thorough planet zoo videos!

[@zsmfazithali]

How about adding a cave temple for the Himalayan Brown Bear or for the Snow leopard as a Hard shelter? They're big in India.

[@szam21]

The monasteries look great. I don't think having both a station and a gondola ride would hurt, it'll be cool. As for renaming all the animals, I don't think it'll be good as they'll lose their region specific names.

[@danielleoliver1734]

You should name the Snow Leopard Habitat Qomolangma Preserve, it’s the on,y protected area in Tibet for the Snow Leopards

[@lumeingi]

I second this name idea!

[@Molscheira]

I third it :)

[@kodawolf6837]

37:27 Is when we hit are 100th year. It has been a howling good time.

[@pudupudu9837]

Another great episode! Just a few things: was reminded when you were looking at the baby tigers' genes that you have the now-mature panda with amazing genes but no partner. Since her parents are now too old to breed, maybe it would be a good idea to get her a mate? Would be a shame for her not to have a good chance to have cubs. Not sure if I mentioned it last session, but the red you're using is a bit more on the warm-toned orange side rather than the more cool toned 'Christmas-y red' (if that makes sense), which might be why it looks a bit off to people. It looks more Mediterranean than festive / Arctic. Great design though, otherwise. Both train station and gondola makes sense, because someone could hop on the train at the entrance and get the train all the way out to the leopards (and hope on a gondola, if they want to), whereas the gondola is more of a local trip and less of a practicality.

[@samwhite4257]

the flags are tibetan prayer flags. they've got small writings on them.

[@barbora1967]

I love what you did with the "miniature" Himalayas, and the monastery looks majestic from distance as well! But the Snow Leopards are somewhat shy, and I don't think they will be thrilled to have another viewing platform, so you could: 1. Hollow-out the mountain space and put a one-way glass, so visitors can see Snow Leopards when they are resting. 2. For the resting area, you could build a partially covered monastery courtyard instead of the cave. The high roof solves the escapes routes and jumping over the wall. Also, on the side of the railroads, you can have windows (one-way glass), so people on the train get a glimpse of the leopards in the courtyard. 3. The hollowed-out space (with one-way glass) can connect to the platform overlooking both habitats from the future gondola station (or train station?). One staircase can lead from the inside of the mountain to the ground level too, on the China pavilion side, I mean. 4. On the inside of the monastery and hollowed mountain space, you could put some guest facilities, so guests are coming into the area more often. I very much like the idea of guests using the door instead of opening the space from the outside. (I mean guests walk through the door like ghosts, but that is fun too).

[@Molscheira]

I made a comment with a similar idea a few minutes ago, now I read your description and I love your idea so much more than mine :) Love the connecting pathways in the mountains and the guest facilities! And totally agree with "the monastery looks majestic"!

[@Sazzynationable]

Here it is. The reason I look forward to Tuesdays.

[@aoliver4686]

Could start the Gondola ride over in the empty spot by the flamingos, where thought about a park. Have it stop at the top of the mountain by the 1st temple, then a path goin through it, down the side like curved around the outside to the ground for more look out spot on the way down

[@PartyElite]

Oooh interesting

[@mystical_pegasus]

I’m really liking the direction of the snow leopard section. The execution of the style was really on par. I can’t wait for the whole section to be finished.

[@metalwolf3674]

Why am I laughing when you were whispering after the wolf died lol 😂 lets take a moment of silence haha

[@namddoon]

I laughed so hard when you said the red-and-yellow "gift boxes" looked like McDonald's because that's what I thought!! 😂😂

[@tawniemann4128]

There are nine reindeer. Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner, Blitzen and Rudolf. :D

[@RainsNeoncore]

You should just put more mountains beside the stairs. That would be cool scenery going up the stairs.

[@alexrum5360]

Maybe your next Sunday Special could be when you build the memorial!

[@zachrychling289]

We need the memorial soon Party, there's so many animals dying. :(

[@che8527]

i know! I remember him mentioning for it to have the names of all animals that died and i think it'll be too much work to add the name every single animal... but something to symbolize the animals would be sweet

[@Babs2243]

Hey ya Party! I think you would benefit from hiring a few spare vendors. I’ve noticed that your stores are often closed while the vendors take their breaks. I think yep for gondola.

[@PartyElite]

Good catch!

[@moniquecash]

Maybe they walk through the temple to get to the viewing platform?

[@Crimsonrain13]

Yaaaaaasss

[@mione134]

Great idea!

[@nisargbhavsar25]

45:35 I agree too. I believe the idea of both the train station and the gondola is better!!!

[@souriyodishak3577]

I think it's worth doing the train station and the gondola because A. It'll be cool to have another form of transportation that you don't have. B. The train only goes one way from China back around through the hill station so anyone getting on the hill station (which should be kept for sure as another landmark area) would have to go all the way around to get back. This way they can take the gondola as a shortcut back and forth. I have a couple suggestions for a name for this Monastery Complex: Since these animals are Himalayan, it seems fairly apparent to do some sort of Tibetan name either with a relevant mountain in the region or some Standard Tibetan words. Also, many monasteries in the northern India/Nepal/Tibetan region work hard in conservation efforts for snow leopards, so I think this complex is very fitting. Based on my general 1:00 AM googling Something like "snowy mountain monastery" in Standard Tibetan is "Gang-ri Gom Pa". I think there's something that can be done there. Or you could use something with the holy mountains of the region (Mount Kailash I think is the most well-known). Finally, I'm getting a bit ahead of this because I know the Himalayan Brown Bear is coming, it could be clever to make reference to the yeti or "Dzu-Teh" in Nepalese, because it was found that the supposed "yeti" DNA was actually DNA of the rare Himalayan Brown Bear. Potential exhibit name for the HBB - "Dzu-Teh Dome" Great content as always, and thank you for coming to my TED talk :).

[@PartyElite]

Excellent TED talk 5*s ! Seriously though - love the thinking!

[@mange2696]

My bad luck streak had finally ended, my cat has been getting better with his respiratory infection :) Glad to see some fluffy bois with my own fat boi

[@moniquemacias2764]

Omg I love the monasteries🏯 in the mountains they look gorgeous from up close and from afar. Maybe u can make the pathway go into a cave so they can see were the snow leopards rest, kinds like the grizzly and wolf den view but from inside a mountain lol. Loved the episode and dont forget u need a gold female timberwolf!!🐺🏅

[@Crimsonrain13]

This

[@Crimsonrain13]

Through the mountain, through party. Cave viewing is sooo awesome. Not to mention the lighting you could do. Oh man.

[@gracefulscar221]

I wanted to take a moment and let you know what a blessing these videos have been over the last month and a half. You see my husband very abruptly came down with stage 4 cancer and I have spent the bulk of that time sitting in the hospital with him. The peaceful quiet tone to these videos helps greatly to shut my brain off and help me drift to sleep. Thank you for being a bright light in a hellish time.

[@PartyElite]

Oh God I'm so sorry to hear that... I'm glad I can provide some solace in this difficult time and I hope you're doing alright...

[@glenmartin7978]

In traditional lore, Santa Claus's sleigh is led by eight reindeer: Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donder (variously Dunder or Donner) and Blitzen (variously Blixen or Blixem). The popularity of the 1949 Christmas song "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" has led to Rudolph joining the list, bringing the number up to nine.

[@bobapups]

In the polar bear habitat, there’s some exposed bedding btw

[@lumeingi]

Oh, PartyElite, I visited Tibet a few times and if I can recommend anything about Tibetan monastery buildings and styles, you should definitely google the "Potala" and "Rongbuk Monastery". And yes! In almost every temple in the mountains in Tibet, even in remote-ish places like near base camp for Mount Everest, you'll find these poles with multicolour Tibetan prayer flags wrapped around the pole or just floating around. For references you can google "Tibetan prayer flag pole". I don't know if that's possible in Planet Zoo, but if you're interested in trying I think it'd be super cool and look even more like the Himalayan region, or especially what I've seen of Tibet.

[@jocondedu55]

Wow ! Those mountain buildings look so great ! Here's an idea (don't know if it's possible though) : the railway is going just behind the cave where the snow leopard are going to sleep... It would be cool if you could see inside the cave from the train, to catch a glimpse of those beautiful beasts before stopping at the station :) Thank you for all the efforts you put to make us happy, Party ! And happy anniversary to Elite Zoo ! Congrats to you :D

[@namddoon]

Btw I love the exhibit animal management stuff at the beginning of the video; super satisfying, super relaxing. A little bit sad that you only do it now and then

[@ellathetiny4450]

ahhhh waiting for these episodes is painful! also it was so cute after you saw the polar bear roll over, it jumped right over the wind chimes !! and in regards to that face cam... YES PLEASE also its super awesome that you try to listen to everyones suggestions but also dont forget if you like the way something looks you dont have to change it cause someone said so, i feel so bad when one session you say you really like the way something looks then next session you change your mind cause some people expressed they dont like it :( anyways dont be afraid to do what YOU wanna do cause thats super interesting to see what kinda things you really like once and a while. Like i think youre right in that both the train and gondola would work together, it would give people a reason to get off the train :)

[@PartyElite]

Haha I'm so used to a career of feedback I don't mind when people make me notice something needs changing =D

[@joren0111]

I only recently started watching your channel and I am at episode 35 of Planet Zoo atm but since you always say you love to read the comments I wanted to come and say that I really love your Planet Zoo and I am really happy it is still alive and running :D

[@Crimsonrain13]

Hey Party. Also remember that snow leopards are super good at jumping. So you need to keep that in mind when building barriers and selecting higth and anti climbing stuff on the top. And watch how close you put them viewing platforms. Personally I think adding a little shopping village up there is a great idea, and you should also have the paths spilt off and tunnel both directions into the mountains of both the snow leopard and Himalayan bear enclosures creating a quiet snug and cozy viewing experience for Den viewing. Imagine soft cool lighting, ambient sound, and tons of donations!

[@TheOfficialNick]

Hello, and 4 years-ish later? I still find all these fantastic and whatever is goings on wherever in the park and it it just the best! I’ve told you this before, but I do play on to put me to sleep! And that is I’m the best compliment ever! I’ve told you before you just have the best diction!

[@obw4945]

You are right, that animation of the polar bear was the cutest thing we saw in the game!

[@lumeingi]

Personally, I don't think having both the gondola and the train station is overkill. People are lazy and don't wanna walk! Plus, it offer great views from above, it they manage to spot the leopards because of their camouflage. I think the reason people don't want to go see the polar bears is that's it's just too far away, but hopefully as you add more animals and expand the zoo people will see the trip to the artic as more worth it.

[@purpledragonfly4]

Only 2 mins in so far but Party, this is your JOB! You SHOULD promote yourself and encourage people to support that! It gives us viewers the videos we love! No one would work for free in any other job so heck, let people know about Patreon as much as you like! The more support you get, the longer this series and others can run.

[@jules2394]

I don’t know if you did this or not but you need to make the wooden barrier climb proof so the snow leopards don’t escape

[@courtsk9663]

Sat on youtube refreshing the home page for 5 minutes until I finally saw ur video. This is why I love tuesdays

[@mrb2018]

For the Snow Leopard habitat name in the future, maybe P-o-uncia (the p stands for panthera and uncia is the scientific name for snow leopard)

[@carissakussmaul9582]

I love the idea of a cave for the snow leopards. I think an interesting solution to the views from there would be a glass wall like what you have for the wolves and bears. Tunnel through the mountain with the path like a secret catacomb. I think it really fits the monastery theme you have going.

[@alainpiredda3452]

Party for the viewing point of the snow leopards you could build a path that goes through the 2 tower that you built. The path would go straight up and trough the mountain and reach a viewing platform just above the little cave next to the area of the escapes!

[@GlamdringandOrcrist]

When you make your orangutan enclosure, you could allow people to walk through it with a tunnel. Using a glass roof there or perhaps making the whole tunnel one way glass would make that work. They could also view it from above with gondola. Keeps the enclosure vertical almost entirely. Since they’re native to Borneo, you could make the whole thing an island just for the apes.

[@thejalmathuraillustration3171]

I live for your planet zoo updates

[@PartyElite]

Ooooh paint?

[@thejalmathuraillustration3171]

Indeed! I’m an illustrator, so I love having something comforting and interesting on in the background while I work. I’ve been inspired to take on some fanart of Elite Zoo North! Your zoo is stunning and the effort you place in each habitat is wonderfully inspiring

[@gemmabox1582]

You should add some shops in the garden/ courtyard as it’s extra space and looks like people could use it

[@hawkfrost59]

1. In the Himalayas for the train station, as long as you make that top section accessible ONLY by train, I think you can also add the gondola 2. Maybe move an enrichment feeding option for the polar bears where the shelter used to be? Just to spread things out a little more and they can utilize all of the space 3. Female Timberwolf?

[@ashleyhoran5388]

Party, you are incredible. Love all that you do. Make sure your barrier for snow leopards is climb proof, pretty sure they need that. As for memorial, about 20 to go on it, I got a running list for when you need it.

[@arbsbee9193]

I also didnt grow up with much/really any Christmas! Just a few memories with my moms side and from celebrating with significant others. Mainly celebrated Hanukkah, which might be cool to incorporate somewhere too if possible. Hanukkah has such gorgeous blues and metallics associated with it. But for the presents I'd recommend maybe doing green and red, gold and green, green and blue, blue and white for possible color combos Keep up the great work! Happy 100 years of Elite Zoo North!!

[@lorna_alice]

The polar bear playing with the scratching post was so cute. And to answer how close you could in theory get to them, the ye olde Edinburgh Zoo polar bear used to swim up beside a glass section, so technically a few inches of reinforced glass. 🙂 The new buildings look cool, and I'm not opposed to having both train and gondolas as it gives people the option to still see things if they have a preference of transport.

[@AmanRaj-lp5lz]

It would be better if you had gone to shrubs and small plants at mountain top, rather than putting trees. Not many trees are available at mountainous heights. Also, could you keep the lightings in that monastry region a bit modest, as to symbolise the modest way of living monks would be having over there.

[@lisilu9905]

Another great episode! Maybe the viewing platform for the snow leopards could be etched inside the triangle shaped mountain (the one on the left side of the monastery), along with a small walkway. I like the idea of the cave functioning as hard shelter. Maybe part of it could also be glass, so people from underneath can see them rest. Looking forward to the next episode(s)!😍

[@jessicacallaghan4853]

I am a first time commenter and just want to say that I am addicted to your videos I think the zoo is looking amazing! I have watched all previous episodes in about two weeks and am now fully caught up and can’t wait for the next one! Keep up the amazing work x

[@alysaneblackwood]

Hey PartyElite absolutely loving the series and your builds are so beautiful and inspiring. After watching the Santa's workshop build I got creative and made a cute little christmas caroller out of art shapes. Stuck it on the workshop for everyone so enjoy

[@zoeyngo6347]

Love the mosque idea. It’s turning out really nice. A few suggestions: - Put more terrain/ rocks by and underneath the stairs to make it more realistic. - The leopards jumps really really high. You’ll have to at least double the wall height you have rn. - I’m a little skeptical about the glass floor idea. It’s cool and all, and works great for aquariums, but ... imagine standing there looking up when the animal suddenly takes a big dump 🤢 The animals wouldn’t appreciate walking on glass either. - Don’t forget bins and benches!

[@reginageorge7904]

The leopards can leap over the walls, so they either need to be taller or adjust the null barrier to include the ledges or remove the ledges where there leopards are escaping

[@bestegamers123]

I really really like this series. I hope you keep doing this for a long time. I get so happy when i see you made a new planet zoo video. Thanks for the last 54 elite ;D

[@Thukad]

Santa's worlshop needs more green. Red and green are the most christmasy colors. For gifts some blue would also help. I like the roof btw.

[@Mysticalfrog29]

I really like the Muted colors of the mountain complex it fits with that vibe.

[@erikahelding1662]

Catching up slowly but surely! Love the series, just joined as a channel member :)

[@Zonearth]

Love the direction the zoo has taken over the last 20 episodes, even tho you drive my OCD up a wall not finishing stuff the same time LOL 😂😂. Keep up the great work Party.

[@l0serboi]

The wooden fence for the snow leopards looks really nice but I'm pretty sure that the wood is actually climbable, which is rather counterproductive, since the animals can just kind of, climb over and escape

[@Galaxydragonpie]

The downside of how often you upload this series is how much I have to catch up with before I watch the new one. Even than I still too impatient. I love this series even if I probably won't ever play I enjoy watching you play it. I hope this keeps going.

[@rossgordanier]

54 episodes down and 150 to go xD hopefully I'll be caught up by 220 xD

[@mrs.bryonna.l.taylor]

I really love the monasteries. It's going to be incredible. Question, can you move the station by the pandas and the snow leopards to the part under the cave? That walk from the station is so far.

[@RatuLubis]

Hey Party! I remember you put directions on train station in india section, you should add more in every stations :) Keep it up!

[@shemer00]

I love FroggyAZ's idea! Add some presents and lights. They could have a stable for them. Even a frozen pond or fallen trees with snow.

[@vodkavecz]

Watched a short video here on youtube about snow leopards recently (it was like 3-4 minutes, I recommend it). Really interesting. So, they are able to climb up and down like 70-80 degree elevations, and also able to jump 7 times their own length. 16 meters! That's why they are jumping around, and climb outside, so plan accordingly. And saw it in other planet zoo vid, that despite they don't need climbing, they would use it. Put down at least one dried out tree for them, for cool views.

[@courtneydrayton8215]

Just a suggestion, put a glass wall on the train side of the snow leopard enclosure at the cave thing. It adds a viewing platform. Also you could do a tunnel up from the train plat form through the mountain to the cave viewing plat form providing a secondary view point, it me and you can still use the temple a something functional

[@beckyjones7532]

I think you definitely need a way to view the snow leopards better when they’re in that upper area. Right now that’s the biggest open space you have so if guests don’t have a way to see them there, you’re not going to have decent views. The snow leopards can jump pretty high so that will be a limitation as you work on that habitat. I’m also pretty sure they’re going to be able to climb the wood.

[@Mweedman7]

Thank you for being one of the only KZbinr that’s still play planet zoo I want to play it but I need a pc first. I love your videos thanks for entertaining me on my lunch breaks 💜

[@soupyen8136]

The snow leopards habitat looks great but to blend the train tracks into the mountains would be great, like having the train track go through a tunnel built into the mountain

[@zamiranoh82]

The temperature messed up just reminded me of the first habitat where you "forced" the wolves to live at -20 . LOL The tiger cubs are so adorable! Just like my Leo! I always told him to grow up and be like a tiger or a lion. Haha I've seen polar bears in a zoo before, they're huge & so fluffy! But the sad thing was, the habitat was too small in comparison to the ideal size for them. Talking about their habitat, somehow, if you're into whimsical theme, you could make a coca cola truck as a building where you can place either the toilets or stalls. BTW, you might want to consider adding some exhibitions animals at the polar bear area, or move the turtle there. The turtles could probably attract more people to visit the area. I must say that, I love the lightings in the zoo but, perhaps more lights along the pathway? And fences too? I don't mind to have a gondola ride near the habitat. At least, the visitors have an option, to walk, to ride the train or the gondola. Why not? I personally prefer to have an option.I think you might want to consider to make a pagoda as a viewing platform (if you've been to Osaka, it's something like the castle there). You might want to check out Fansipan, Sapa in Hanoi as a reference too. It's also have cable car, pagoda, etc. Just wondering, when will you build the memorial area? ;P It's already 100 years! They might turn into fossil anytime soon. Last but not least, I think it would be nice if you can give names to those significant build too (i.e, stairs, river, the mountain, etc). Perhaps adds steps count as sign post too (something like how they display the height of the mountain above sea level).

[@mitsubachiii]

Thanks for another great episode! I wouldn't mind the gondola and train station so close to each other. I feel like the purpose of both is completely different. While the train feels a bit more like a transport service from A to B (mainly), a gondola is there to enjoy the view and you mostly take the train to get to the gondola. So I would think it's fine in that way :D The snow leopards area starts to look really fine!!! I'm looking forward to more building in the next episode! :D

[@Saraahh99]

Maybe you could make the leopard cave go down so the people that walk through the tunnel underneath can see them inside the cave while they are resting there :)

[@dalekjast5]

If you do make a market place type thing, you should make it a stone garden theme. They are very popular in Buddhist temples and would be a great way to make the space seem more interactive for the guests even if they can't really meditate. And it would be cute to name the Leopard Habitat as the Leaping Monastery, since the jump animation is a huge leap, as a snow leopard can leap 20 ft / 6 meters vertically.

[@karolinanowak5158]

You could make like another tower, on the other side of the mountain (the side with the train track) that would be a walk in one for the guests to look at the leopards in the ruins :) with like a balcony and maybe a food stall, hot drinks or something :)

[@Jayvward1]

Oh man, amazing work Party! I can see the Tibetan Monastery might become one of my fave enclosures. If i rememver rightly from my time in school the prayer flags colours all represent something different and they usually have mantras on. So you usually see them on the strung along the trails in the mountains as they believe the wind will spread the peace and prosperity written on the flags. May have remembered that incorrectly though, I'm not an expert. Also don't forget to get a new female timber wolf! 😊

[@CherrySquirrels25]

I think the reason you're not seeing people viewing the animals more further out is because you have it set to a low amount of park guests that are viewable? I could be wrong but it's worth a shot!!

[@HeyitsCrystal26]

I think he changed it back to see if that fixed the crowds at the tortoises a while ago. I don't know if it's 1:1 though!

[@PartyElite]

Hmmmm good point I'll double check!

[@darrylweinstein5272]

Add some exhibit animals in the Aurora borealis (auto correct messed it up) so that way if people can't see the polar bears, they have other things to see. Also, you need some bins on the other side of Santa's workshop

[@cansahda]

I'm late to this one because I was working, but at least I can enjoy this episode in my bed with a cup of creamy hot chocolate. Edit: Please put the bedding INSIDE the polar bears hard shelter, its driving me mad lol

[@shivanisalkar6024]

RIP Wolferine, that was the most dramatic/peaceful/sadest death ever. With the red sky and the flower in the background, it felt like the end of the world and so damn peaceful with the flowers :((( ok I am done ranting. But the howl at the end😭😭😭 ok I am done now Edit: VANESSA!!!!!not the vine...

[@mikatoshino2241]

You are completely correct I was so sad when the wolves died. Wolferine was such a beautiful death and then Vanessa and I was just like booboo not you to

[@PartyElite]

Always sad to see them go ;-;

[@crimsongamer2337]

The reason there are steps in certain places, take a Buddhist Temple, for example, is to make people focus on walking each step. In Buddism, before you pray to Buddha, you need to concentrate your mind. Concentration is related to a process of purification one’s soul. It's one of the most important teachings in Buddism. It exists as the first entrance into Buddism, but also the last exit as well.

I loved this episode, I live in a very mountainous region so anything involving mountains hits home for me. Love this series sooooo much. I’m totally not drunk right now...

You asked for it, so like usual I have a million comments for your amazing video series. 1. I like both the train and gondola ride but I can’t imagine how the gondola will fit. That’s why you play and I sit back relax and watch the magic happen. 2. I say name the animals bc it is fun. 3. The grid sucks. Don’t use the grid. You do sooooo goood without the grid. 4. Wood fencing looks weird in snow leopard habitat. What about stone? Or something else? 5. Your adding a lot of trees but are those the right type for the animal? They look good but do they fit the environment, I don’t know. 6. You mentioned adding another viewing area for the snow leopards. What about extending the path “in front” ( the side near the pandas) to follow the stairs and mountain up. I don’t know if it would be possible because it would go over the other path(other path = the one going under the mountain towards the train station)

At the end the other snow leopard was all curled up on top of the little ruined part of the temple, super cute. So sad you missed it. Hope we get to see it again

Aww man I hate missing moments like that!

The viewing platform looked incredible! I think a cave would be cool for the snow leopards. Dont forget the female Timberwolf! And also dont forget to turn on the two vendor stalls down under the Polar Bears. Its still not open! Other than that RIP Wolverine. You will be missed!

Monastaries have a large number of stairs because most monastaries are located in a high place to be closer to heaven / god

“You know Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen Comet and Cupid and Donner and Blitzen But do you recall The most famous reindeer of all? Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer Had a very shiny nose!” That makes 9 reindeer in total, maybe a couple guarding the door !!

Maybe you could add another entrance on the polarbear side to promote more even distribution of guest. As of now all the guest have to travel a long time to get to that side. You could even add like a parking lot area or make a seemingly under ground entrance and then the flow of quest could start in that area as well. As far as i can tell there is no limit on how many entrances you can have for your zoo.

I was so lucky to be in Copenhagen Zoo when the baby polar bear was let outside the first time, it was the cutest thing I have ever seen. Let's celebrate 100 years of our Elite Zoo North! Remember to get a female timber wolf or two since you have 3 males and an alpha... Also, I'm really looking forward to you getting some snow leopard cubs, they are the cutest. I would like to see just a train station because I think that would be enough, it would be a bit much having both. I look forward to seeing Red Pandas when you get to them they are my favorites, I read somewhere recently that there are actually two different species of Red Pandas and that is why it's so hard to breed them.

A gondola ride between the two towers would look really cool.

I know it’s rather late but you’ve said you check old comments on videos so I hope you see this. When sorting out your exhibit animals, make sure to keep an eye on the ages. I noticed one of the tarantulas was about 25 years old and you kept them. It’d be better to trade those ones out and keep the younger ones so that you don’t end up having to buy a new parent. On another note, I absolutely love your series. Your eye for detail is amazing. Keep up the good job!

So for the snow leopards you should make the boundaries more cliff like because they wont be able to jump down the drop. Right now they can jump the current boundary.

The Himalaya section looks sooo good! The stone from the buildings blends nicely with the mountains. Kudos to the developers for making this game such a beautiful expierence to look at! Regarding the snow leopard viewing spot: maybe tunnel through the big mountain from the lower viewing spot to over their sleeping cave and build a viewing platform up over there. And I know that this might be too much but what about other exhibit animals? Maybe there are some from East Asia and a good spot would be the visitor tunnel under the snow leopard resting place (I like the exhibit animals very much). And another suggestion :) what about some rickety faux walkways up in the mountains like the walkways where there are only a few wooden planks and you wonder how on earth someone could use them! :)

Watching this over the Super Tuesday results in the U.S.... this is much more comforting.
