PLANET ZOO | EP. 67 - I'M-A-LAYIN' OUT ENCLOSURES (Franchise Mode Lets Play)

[@PartyElite]

Hey folks! Check out the latest community post here - kzbin.infocommunity. Bit of an update as to my plans for the near future, and as always, I'll be reading through the comments there to get your thoughts too! I hope you enjoy this session - I'm quite pleased with how things are being wrapped up here and there. Cheers!

[@marco_grt4460]

Just for your memory At 35:30 it is the beginning of a great distraction: in the last episode you planned to have 2 enclosures for rhinos, in this episode instead, according to the requests of the public, you have rightly expanded the enclosure of the elephants. The fact is that the 2 animals share the structure not the fence and therefore you were changing the right educational screens (rhinos) with the wrong ones (elephants)

[@garyb3890]

Yet again a great episode of planet zoo tank you for keeping us all sane in these trying times. Now for a name idea...The bear high platform viewing point could be called:- TA - BEAR - TAN HEIGHTS. Also you have a overlapping speaker at the snow leopards and bears.

Divide the section into three for the Orangutans, a feeding area a play area and then the sleeping area. So that the Orangutans move to the other end of the enclosures, to draw more people to the Tunnel.

[@lucillaloverso7108]

Fazith Ali Zakir yes!

[@knuckys]

I've noticed that a lot of the stalls are often without a vendor because they're on break. Before you had double the amount and you never saw them empty but now that you have so many more stalls the workers can't keep up. I suggest getting a bunch of new vendors. It might help solve visitors complaints as well

[@therandomheretek5403]

or close the 20+ stalls which never attract any customers to free up staff...

[@emiliegilbert9774]

Ive noticed as well!

[@PartyElite]

That's a very good point! And we can definitely afford the extra staff!

[@annesmith8055]

I think you should expand the Himalayan bear enclosure by lowering some of the mountains. Also to make the elephants more manageable I would enclose underneath the plaza by the rhinos. This way they won’t go under. Go to the artic! Love this series.

[@rajankageorge1341]

I think to make the elephants more manageable it would be smart to restrict accusés to the river on the other side and make it another rhino enclosure so you have more of each animal in each area

[@cansahda]

I won't watch this right now, so I'll have something fun to watch tomorrow. Guys don't forget to like the video to show how much we appreciate it, God knows how much I've been bored this quarantine and this series is a life saver :)

Happy to be of some assistance! Hopefully it'll all be back to normal soon!

[@robertdavis1107]

I feel like the terrace for the Himalayan bears is a bit unrealistic and it kind of acts as a roof of the exhibit instead if a balcony lookout type structure. THE CAVE IDEA LOOKS GREAT THOUGH!

[@rajankageorge1341]

If you shorten the balcony it would look less like a roof

Might need to rework it a bit, yeah!

In my game I just learned that the concrete barriere is recolorable and it really changed many of my exhibits when it's no longer the grey concrete tone. Maybe you can do the same for the barriere in the ivory palace? I love that build and it would be cool if you can have it match the indian pieces. + You can also have joined walls between two enclosures. You might be able to give the new bears more ground when you connect their barriere to the one from the snow leopard. Love your vids. ;)

[@britainmonk7931]

Party, When you do decided to go to the arctic region (and if you put in reindeer) it would be really cool if you made a small barn for them. I know we did the stables idea already. But I think it would be really cool if you made a small barn with individual stable in the barn. The middle of the barn could be a walk way where guest could enter and the right and left hand sides of the walkway could be individual stables for the reindeer that had separate entrances to enter in and out of the barn into their enclosure. Similar to what you have at the camels, except you would put a barn over it. Hard to explain but hoping you could use your creative mind and run with a starting point. We live next to a reindeer farm here in South Dakota so I think it would be unique idea!

[@rubyjohnson6827]

Santas Stables is a good name if you go with that in my opinion, or the Reindeer Reserve

Indian elephants and Indian rhinos can share an enclosure, so the second male rhino could live with the elephants. Also, you really should buy a few more female elephants or have a new breeding male, because right now there's only one breeding female so the growth of the herd will be really slow. Compared to the Himalayan brown bear, the snow leopards have a huge space. The train station by the giant pandas hasn't been put into a work zone.

[@Sipu97]

I like how nature-centric the new enclosure is, simple and beautiful. And I loved that you kept the Nakedra scorpion :D Maybe you could have kept Arin in that same enclosure with the elephants and thus have a common habitat for rhinos and elephants. And that little sprinting elephants, too cute! Remember to lower new vet's salary. I'm fine with both China or Arctic area.

[@shivanisalkar6024]

I think you should take turns between china and the artic, like focus on the pandas one session and in the next session do the reindeers and switch between them or it gets a little repetitive, anyhow I loveee this series

[@PartyElite]

Might be wisest!

[@andii8034]

been waiting for this since you got this bear as a gift in the early episodes

[@PartyElite]

Like... episode 5? Maybe 10? =D

[@moonbaloon172]

hey, the rhinos definitely don't need more space. they can only have one baby at a time and it takes them forever to mate and have the baby. so there won't probably never be more than 3 rhinos in the enclosure. and its massive, dude... like more than double the size they need. so don't worry about having to make it bigger.. the elephants on the other hand can become a group of 30. so the guest will not be upset because they don't see them once you get more little ones.

[@eduardocavazos8625]

Ooooooof so good

[@livb.11]

I think putting food stalls up by the monastery would be nice, not too many but some. I think it’d be a really cool place to sit and eat or just relax with a snack. Also the food shops down in the bear cave are very close, the lines are going to pile up on top of each other and might cause a blockage. Loved this episode and I’m excited for the tour of the zoo!

[@mystical_pegasus]

Good thing you didn’t get the first female Himalayan Brown bear because she was just over 20 years old I believe she would have died soon before you could some babies

[@PartyElite]

Hah and I would've totally missed the age too. Worked out!

[@rajankageorge1341]

I think the Ivory palace and rhino enclosures cold all be one big one b/c the elephants have way to much space now might give bad veiws. or my other suggestion, making 2 smaller enclosures for the rhinos by the river and half the palace works too! I’m not opposed to how much space they have but i think that they got a little too much!

[@ngg193]

The really high platform just created should be a gondola station!

[@majabramm]

Hi Party Still enjoying this series so much. Thank you for your hard and dedicated work! :D Here's some notes I took while watching: - Even though I am not a member, I would love to name one of your staff members "Marb" but I do totally understand your limits. Just a poor student lmao - 19:20 Wow absolutely stunning view from there. With the trees, the sun and autumn colors - 22:10 Well even though I get why you don't want to put shops there, I think people are going to be mad about their needs. Like they have to take the train all the way to another station and THEN grab something to eat, drink etc :/ - 39:40 I think some of the education boards and speakers are still wrong.. Not sure, but might want to check it (top left) - I would like to see the China part now. :)

[@HeyitsCrystal26]

I'm so glad you did a cave view again. I love that style.

[@alessiagiglioni8451]

Instead of shops on the higher viewing spot of the new bears you should put and exhibit, like building inside the monastery tower a little “house” for the exhibit and let people enter the monastery and watch the exhibit so that they will also use the platform! You should definitely take down that mountain and give them a little more space lol Good work💪🏻😘

[@karolineandersen1138]

awesome cave Party! and I like what you did for the Rinos/Ellies was a bit skeptical till the baby came running through! THAT sold me! & was absolutely the best answer to all our questions! Baby made the final decision! I really hope you will do at least a bit to China next as the poor Pandas have been so lonely for so long! Even if it's just a small enclosure of some kind to bring more guests that way.I'm sure you have much more in mind for the Artic area as there are at least 4 more species that can go there! Either way do what you feel best as we'll still be here no matter what you decide.Always looking forward to the next episode stay safe & have a great week!

[@beckyjones7532]

I’m always such a huge fan of the cave views and this one has gotta be a new favorite! I think when you do your beauty pass, come through and check all the education for the rhinos and elephants to make sure it actually makes sense because you were confused about who goes where for a good while 😅 and maybe spread out some stuff that the elephants need throughout that enclosure so they’ll tend to wander. Or get more females for a bigger herd! I also think you could keep them inside the garden and rearrange your barriers so rhinos get the area between the path and the river, if it ends up the elephants are just spreading out too much.

[@essie1322]

- The episode in which Party had trains of thought and promptly lost all of them, only to find more while digging to China. -Maybe to fix the Bear space and also the upper viewing issue, take some of the mountain peaks and flatten into an upper plateau? Maybe all the way to accessing on top of their new den, then they might be really close to the gondola too for some awesome views. -I think China needs some love next, keep going in order South to North. Very excited to see what nifty climbing apparatus you come up with for the red panda (I think pangolins are adorable little dinosaurs, but I'm assuming the commentors all want to see maximum fluffy cuteness if we have to pick between the two.) -Maybe the new SA dlc goes behind the tortoise enclosure, so the walkthrough actually walks through to something instead of just back on itself, since that area isn't going to be Africa like originally planned?

[@kayleehiggins7310]

Love the new habitat! And like the idea of the giving the elephants more space. Just a suggestion: maybe you can close off access to the water on the extended section to make it a little smaller to help with views while still giving them space to run around. Besides that love all that you’re doing and love this series! Can’t wait to see more!!!!!

[@MasterOfNinjas16]

Pandas are my FAVORITE animal of all time! My favorite thing about living in San Diego was being able to see Pandas at the SD Zoo. So, I'd love to see them get the same love as all the other animals have. Personally, I feel like they've been getting the short end of the stick when it comes to the zoo, lately. Finish China before starting something new.

[@rajankageorge1341]

I think that adding a vendor or 2 in the monisaries wold be fine b/c their is int any at that train platform. But if you add them or them in the wall of the monisary so they are less of a eyesore

[@45webstar]

Loved this episode!!! Love the new enclosure for the brown bears and agree with other comments that lowering some mountains to increase floor space is a good idea. Happy the elephants have a bit more room as well! Maybe the enclosure doesn't need to extend past the bottom of the palace gardens? Not sure but I guess if the herd keeps expanding the space will all be used

the other day i watched a different planet zooer and her build style was modeled more after actual zoo enclosures and while i do find that style very satisfying, i have come to a newfound appreciation for your approach to these enclosures (not that i didnt enjoy them before cuz i mean ive watched every part of this series buttttttt) cuz theyre so artsy and creative and i like that they reflect the actual habitats of the animals rather than just being zoo habitat enclosures

[@PartyElite]

Glad you enjoy this approach! It was always a bit out there but I couldn't help myself from the start haha

[@darkeclipse2489]

Yay for more space for the elephants! I love the natural look of the new bear in closure! Bear energy for gulpee energy! I’d use the upper deck for food since it’s not the greatest view. Please keep working around the zoo so start with China! It’s great see all these sections coming together! ❤️

[@lorna_alice]

I know this episode was about the bears but that little elephant stole the show. It's so cute. 😍 On the beauty pass remember to add supports to the plaza area beside the rhinos, currently it's floating. 🙂

[@PartyElite]

I knowwwwww what a cutie!!

[@ambermitchener3111]

If making loops gets more people, you might want to consider connecting the Tiger mountain piece with the Elephants. You can build a path from the left elephant viewing point (in the tiger cave) that scales the backside of the mountain (along the river) and connect to the entrance of the elephant exhibit. That way people don't have to go all the way around the tigers again to get to the elephant.

[@nickwildman07]

Just a thought if you don't want to combine the two exhibits... what if you gave the rhinos one side of the river and the elephants the side they were originally on? You could just close off river access to the elephants on the west side of the zoo. That way the elephants have a lot of space to roam and they have one river point, and the rhinos have their own river bank. This way guests could see each animal in their respective water area. Or leave it! Whatever you want!

[@carolinepicasso1814]

I love the new view point for the new bears! Also your train station by the china area is not in a work zone. I think you've found a perfect solution for the elephants and rhinos, however maybe consider adding in a few new females to allow to elephants to grow and fill in the space? Can't wait for the next one!!

[@rajankageorge1341]

I think that more people will look at the Himalayan habitats if you made the ground level viewing area a loop (shouldn’t be that hard)

I’m pretty sure that one heater in rhinos enclosure in still floating after previous session, its on the river half.

[@nickknick2381]

Love the enclosure. Definitely think the mountains should be lowered/made accessible so they have more space and also because it’d look great to see them up there! Also, think the viewing platform needs some benches, for realism more than anything. In general, think benches, bins, security, increasing path connectivity around the zoo, for example around the Himalayas, and making it quicker and easier to get to the panda exhibit from the China train station should be focused on more. Keep up the great work!

I LOVE the idea of the joint Rhino and elephant enclosure!! but, as I'm sure you already know, that would need a lot of, adjusting that habitat, I'm thinking maybe get rid of the large trees! Also I really think you, should move on to China next! The pandas get neglected too much:(( maybe if they had company it would help! And then lastly, if and when you move on to the Arctic session, maybe consider getting in the siberian tiger? That would be pretty dope! Anyways, I love this series and I can't wait to see more of it!! I'll definitely become a channel member asap, so I can properly support!!

[@koreestuke2363]

I LOVE this series! I think you should do China next! A habitat name for the bears could be Himalayan Brown Lair!

[@zephari]

If after some time the guests aren't utilizing the bear cave, you could always extend the path out the end and create a loop to the regular path outside. I do think you should lower some mountains to make more space for the bears. It looks good but the bears comfort comes before aesthetics! And honestly it looks so good even without the extra peak or two. As for the platform, I think it could make sense to shrink it. Even with food stalls I kinda doubt people will ever use it a whole lot because it's a big climb and the view it's really high up. Plus there's no loop. I like the idea of it IRL so I would leave the back part of the platform and remove the large front piece personally. In the elephant area, I would make it so the elephants can't walk too much underneath the path to avoid letting them hide under there for shelter. Just keep the single entrance through and put walls so they can't get stuck hanging out in there. I think it would also be good to add some food enrichment or feeding trays outside so they are drawn out and also so they don't get too hungry when far from the main area. Some of the boards in the Indian rhino exhibit (on the side closest to the original elephant enclosure) got switched to elephant on accident.

[@eprisplays]

Great episode! Artic or chinese, I had a lot of fun making the dall sheep habitat, they are funny jumpers so you can make an interesting elevated scene. I also had a lot of fun making a habitat for the chinese pangolin, they are adorable and like lots of flora. If you need a shop by the monastry (grizzly bears) maybe just a pipshot water for free or prize cost? Pretend its springwater from the mountain. Keep up the good work!

[@tarinacj03]

Love the changes to the elephant enclosure! And now we get to say baby elephants RUN so it's a win. I think you should go on to China after the beauty pass. Just keep moving in that line up and around so there doesn't have to be much/any backtracking. Thank you for always having these out on schedule. I really look forward to these episodes, especially now that everything is a mess it's nice to wake up and know I get to watch Planet Zoo to start my day.

[@Molscheira]

More bears - yeah! I just adore their squishy faces ❤️ Also you were in the middle of adjusting the speaker volume by the bears, I think they are still overlapping with the snow leopard ones. And an idea for the bears: what about a little climbing area? Maybe sacrifice one of the mountain hills plus the guest from up high could have a better view when the bears can get to higher ground. What about connecting via footpath China to the Arctic? It could look sloppy but the traffic could be good and if the connection is build over the polar bear habitat, there could be good views of the animals and that means donations :) The moment with the baby elephant was just the cutest ❤️

[@taleefranks3218]

Just an idea lol So I know you already opened up both sides of the enclosures for the elephants, but you could close it back up and separate them into 2 groups . Since your worried about veiws that would ensure that elephants can be seen by guests on both sides all the time. And you can have 2 breeding groups then . Love your zoo your so creative with the enclosures! 💜

[@MissySimpleM]

Hey Party. I think it would be cool if we flattened that one mountain in the Himalayan Bear enclosure (the one you mentioned) and then built some of the climbing platforms "in" to the remaining mountain so they could kind of climd the mountain. They'd have a bit more space, they'd have fun (in our heads I know it doesn't add enrichment) and they could create better views for the people looking at them from the platform up top. :)

Great episode as always, thank you for the quarantine entertainment:) You should add education boards and donation bins to the food area next to the rhinos, there is quite a view from there! And I want to see China next since the pandas have been lonely and neglected for so long🥺

call the drink stall "cure for un-bear-able thirst" :)

I don't have a preference to Arctic vs. China, just have a couple suggestions that I made before when you initially built those habitats. Red pandas should be on the east side of the pavilion, they need climbing structures, so climbing platforms would put them at eye level with the guests on the pavilion balcony. Pangolins are painfully shy and panic around people, one way glass is required as well as do not disturb signs. In the arctic zone, I still think it would be cool to extend a path north of the building (either creating a new doorway or just extending off the existing balcony, wrap the path around the building to the north, straddling the barrier partway towards the glass dome and then veering left in between some mountains for the dall sheep and forest/meadows for the reindeer. It could meander counterclockwise and join the path on the northwest side of Yanasi Plains.

As I've learned recently in light of this whole COVID deal, good zoos go out of their way to integrate compatible animals. It's seen as a way to increase their enrichment, and reduce boredom. So, anytime you get to combine various species, or even allow them to see one another, I vote that you do it! It's also more "realistic" imo.

Some names for the shops at the bears could Grass Tea because the bears eat grass and veggies and Mongolian Beef.

So this will be a long comment and I hope PartyElite that you are reading this because it is manly stuff for you: -Seeing as you've been working in the Himalayas , it will be a nice difference if you work in the arctic section, and that way you can work on something new and giving you a "fresh pallet." Plus I really like the idea one of the commentors Brian Monson said of creating a whole stable for the reindeer with a walkway for the guests right down the middle. If i were to add something to this idea, it would be to add a runway, where the reindeer can run through as if they are Santa's reindeer. Also it would be cool if you named them after Santa's reindeer. -This is an idea for the sponsorship. In the entrance of your zoo, make a big sign where every time a new sponsor of a habitat comes in, put their name on the board. And to add to this, for each habitat find a "central" education board where you can decorate that board with the sponsor's name. -Now here's some stuff related to me. I would personally love to sponsor the pandas, as they are my literal spirit animal and i love everything to do with them. If this is not an option, my secondary choice would probably be the Indian Elephants, as elephants in general are one of my favorite animals, and i really connect with them. I also wanted to see if it was possible in becoming a part of the zoo as a security guard, as i feel they are kind of underrated, but are actually very important to the zoo. Finally, I just wanted to let you know that I just became a member of your channel, and that my name on discord (which I already joined yours) is FootDentist, and the reason I am saying this is so you are able to change my position in the discord when you get a chance. I actually messaged you on discord earlier asking about naming earlier, just in case you find difficulties finding me. Finally I just wanted to say how much of an amazing KZbinr and all around person you are by making these videos, which can not only give people inspiration on builds and ideas for this game, but also help people escape the craziness of the outside world right now. Have a good day Party!

Thanks for the kind words and for joining up as a member! Greatly appreciated =) and for sure we'll get you in on those pandas! I see no reason why we can't!

I love this episode! Thank you for all your hard work!

I think that you should make the one of the rhino habitats for the elephants but still have 2 enclosures for the rhinos. What I would do is use the right side for the elephants but the part by the river Make it an enclosure for the rhinos (It should be enough space) keep the left side the same, that way their will be good views from the boat ride and the palace!
