My object ideas would be a Burger King stand and restaurant, a Ferris Wheel, a Go-Cart Track, a 3-D Theater with five different 3-D movies to choose from, a Baseball Stadium, a Casino, a Protozoan house, a Pet Shop, a Haunted House, a Maze, a Gold Picnic Table and bench, a Komodo Dragon Statue, a Radioshack Store. Does anybody think they can make these?

Hi dark! Sorry for more shameless plugging, hope the mods and admins will forgive. There is a Haunted House in the 2003 Halloween Pack at Zoo Adminand a Ferris Wheel in the 2003 Christmas Pack. There is a Pet Show available here at ZKL (one of my favorites by the way), but a Pet Shop would make an excellent companion building.

Jay and Devona, you there? LOL

A Komodo Statue existed (from 2003), but I do not remember where. I don't see it at the sites I usually visit.

As for a pet shop, Devona originally thought the pet show was going to be a shop. But a show seemed more appropriate. I personally do not think a pet shop (as opposed to a pet supplies shop) would be appropriate. Many people believe getting pets from animal rescue centers or animal humane society centers are more appropriate. And even these centers do not fit well with zoos. (The missions and record keeping are extremely different.) But, of course, it is up to the graphics people to determine what they want to make.

Devona and I even talked briefly about a pet kennel, a place where guests could pick up their pets after their zoo visit. But I'm not sure how useful this would be since, if the guests are leaving the zoo, we would not see them for very long after they went into the kennel. In order to look appropriate, we would probably also need 1-way turnstiles. The effort/benefit payoff didn't seem good.

I do not have any graphics ability; I can only help some people with configuration. Normally I do not respond in the Request section (except if I happen to know something has been created already). I talked about the Pet Shop because my name was invoked. :))

Most of these requests, such as the Burger King. have not been made yet. It is up to the people that do graphics to determine what they can do and what they are willing to do.
