So glad to see you tackle an enclosure and it was worth the wait! One of the worst things about making YT my job was that I had to shift my focus to being first, rather than necessarily being best. Don't get me wrong, I'm pretty proud of the stuff I've done in the beta, but the fact you can take your time, research a little and go at your own pace is incredible refreshing after a couple of VERY busy weeks in the beta :D Can't wait to see more :) Also... 'Rockwork ground textures are set in stone'. Noice.
Thank you! I don't think any route is necessarily the best - and I was definitely inspired by some of the earlier builds too - it's just a matter of what your channel's focus is.
Silv, you've made the grave mistake of sending our expectations sky high now :P Now every time I look at someone else's exhibit I'm gonna be like, "But where is the architecture of the region where the animal lives? What about the rockwork? And this foliage placement is just unsatisfying!"
I love that you did your homework on Bhutanese architecture and tigers. As a Bhutanese I'd say your pretty spot on on the info and details of the farm house. Great work.
This is absolutely beautiful! I’d love for you to extend this over time and in your own time and make it a beautiful land with a lot of animals all living in their own habitat as such. You’re incredibly talented!
I believe I saw on Geekism's video that there's a tool with which you can see the traversable area for the animals. So you'll know for sure where they are and aren't able to go.
This build is gorgeous. But Silvarret, I have to correct you on your misunderstanding of zoos. Accredited zoos are not, in any sense, “animal prisons”. They are usually not for profit, with their entire purpose being conservation and education. Zoos rescue and rehabilitate animals, work to conserve their natural habitats, support and develop programs to create wildlife reserves in native habitats and teach less developed areas about how to live with wildlife. Zoos inspire the general public, and corporations, to actually take action in saving wild animals and their habitats. Zoos need to keep their animals happy, healthy and exhibiting natural behaviour to learn more about them. Animals have incredible veterinary care and animal welfare is top priority. Most zoo animals are born in zoos, and love their homes the same way that your dog loves being a dog - it’s what they know, they know they are safe and happy, and they wouldn’t survive in the wild. I also want to point out that zoos exist to educate people and inspire conservation. Zoos are vital for animal conservation and are enormously important for captive breeding and release to the wild. If not for conservation efforts in zoos, we would already have lost the California condor, regent honeyeater, corroboree frog, Przewalski horse, bison - the list is endless. Support accredited zoos, and they’ll support our wildlife!
First off, I'm not a zoo expert in any way. I wish there were more in the PlanZoo community, but for now you'll have to deal with my inexperienced self. That said, I'm very aware of the conservation (and also, educational) roles of modern zoos, and that they can even be a distant cousin of actual sanctuaries in that they shelter animals otherwise left behind or confiscated. And while some animals can hardly do their natural behaviour in a confined space with an audience, many species do just fine as far as I know. If I really had a negative view of zoos, I don't think I'd visit them or even play this game! But personally I see them as some sort of necessary evil - they're important for conservation efforts, but at the end of the day, animals are kept there involuntarily and without means of escape. I just think it's fair to acknowledge that - and make the best of the situation.
@@Silvarret I'd like to add, that while conservation of species is very important and noble cause, we humans, are also the very reason these species need conservation in the first place. So Zoo's are basically just (one of) our best efforts at mitigating the damage we've caused and are still causing.
the San Diego zoo tiger trail was awesome when i visited it a few weeks ago! its honestly my favorite zoo, i love the atmosphere it holds, and so im so excited for this build, and this series!
I've been enjoying all the beta videos coming out but your channel always sparks a different bit of respect from me with how much you value quality on your channel. You're video quality is clearly important to you as a person and that really shows on your channel.
Not sure how I missed this video. I live in San Diego so I'm about fifteen minutes from the Zoo and constantly go to the tiger trail, so this is such a pleasant surprise.
finally some really good enclosure, i know you are one of the best at this sort of thing but jesus the other youtubers look like arent even trying... Incredible work, thx for the time put into it ! ;D
I see passion, I see creativity. I'm really happy to enjoy your channel, you're truly an artist! Hope to see more videos soon, I already pre-ordered my version of the game. Huge luck to you from Brazil.
Looks awesome! I'm studying Biology and had a Lecture on how to design enclosures in Zoos and you're pretty much spot on! One thing they told us to always keep in Mind: Animals need the ability to run away (or looping around stuff), especially during mating season, it's more important than the actual size of the habitat. Looking forward to the release of this gem, keep it up!
Thank you! That's actually something I forgot to mention in the video - having the one connecting part of the two halves of the enclosure underneath the bridge means that if need be, the enclosure could be separated for males and females - though it seems like Frontier hasn't gone so in-depth in regards to animal behaviour.
I thought that this would be your intention ;-) Having the ability to close off half of the habitat obviously makes it much easier to do maintenance work as well. An enclosure has to be designed so that the Animals can't get pushed into a corner by each other, they had some pretty bloody examples to tell from our local Zoo :/ Wondering about those behaviors as well lol
I'm not sure where you're from but in the UK animal collections and pet owners have to adhere to the 'Animal Welfare Act 2006' which contains the 'Five Animal Needs'.
Hey, your video really inspired me and it was amazing to watch! I loved the endscene, watching the tigers enjoying their new environment, even though it could've been a bit longer. Keep going! Great stuff
What an amazing way of creating this masterpiece! You also take the time to explain the reason and logic for what you do next. Silvarret, you really are a a creative genius!
Thank you so much, for finding the time to get this video out! It's so enjoyable to just sit and listen to you telling me everything I didn't know I wanted to know about architecture. And the work you get done in the timelapse is amazing too! Can't wait to see more of this from you Silv!
I can't believe I hadn't found your channel before! Very thoughtful builder. When you said a zoo is essentially a prison so we should be putting a lot of thought into making the animals happy I was like yup, I'm subscribing
Hey man I've been a long time viewer (and also dutch so shotuout to nederland) and I just wanted to tell you how much I appreciate your content. The amount of research and thought you put into every single video is extremely professional and it warms my heart to see someone care so much about their work. I keep being amazed by everything you put out and zoology/paleontology and design being my main interests in life, the planet zoo content you create is something I enjoy immensely. I just paused the netlflix show I was watching to immediately check out this video as soon as I saw you posted it. So keep it up and best of luck in all your future projects and endeavours! Groetjes!
I mean this is breathtaking. The level of detail. The video is both entertaining and informative. Silv you just became my top 1 PZ creator. But on the other hand you make me so sad, because you make me realize how basic my parks are :D
Your works are amazing! Just subscribed! And I can see why people get addicted to this game. Although I'm not a fan of the simulation games, I have to admit that I will buy this game in November for sure. Everything in this game just looks gorgeous.
Dit is zo realistisch en mooi. Ik hoop dat je echt meer planetzoo gaat spelen wanneer het spel is uitgekomen want jij bent echt zo creatief en echt de beste planetzoo-speler die ik tot nu toe op youtube ben tegengekomen. Wauw!
This is amazing! Im so happy your enjoying the game because you were one of the RUclipsrs I was really waiting for to upload some videos on planet zoo because I know you could do some amazing work with the game. 😊 Some things that you may not know, just to help out. - You can check the traversable area of your animals when building their habitats by clicking on the heat map at the bottom left of your screen. Click on the Paw print and then click on the animal you’d like to see. This will show you if they can escape out of the habitat you have created for them. 👍🏻 - When researching, it helps to have a designated vet and mechanic researcher so that they don’t go and do other jobs and stop their researching. You can check off other job duties when clicking on a staff member. - When you’ve researched better quality food, your keepers will not automatically feed your animal the better food. You have to manually click on the habitat, click on the Paw icon and then select the higher grade food option. Your animals will continue to complain about their last meal quality if this isn’t done. Hopefully these help out a little, I’m really looking forward to some more planet zoo videos from you! I know they’re going to be great!
Thank you for the tips, they'll definitely help out! Especially the trick about traversable areas, it proved 100% that the tigers won't be able to reach guests :D
I'd like to applaud you, you are the only one (I've heard so far) who is making planet zoo videos, that has mentioned the ethical side of the zoos. 👏👏👏
Wow! Can't wait to see you explore all the features! While a lot of people want Frontier to make zoos a part of Planet Coaster I think its great they incorporate new detailed graphics and address a lot fundamental flaws with Planet Coaster. Hope you continue this!
Woah awesome build, especially the way you delve in to all this. Didn't really hear at first that your Dutch but maybe it's my university obligations that made me braindead. Awesome building by the way! Wish I could build like that, but I can't manage anything at all.... Have to start practicing, once the game releases. I'll keep an eye on your channel.
Holy tigers! All of us with the beta have just been trying to figure out the gameplay, trying to make some nice looking enclosures, and Silvarret is over here crushing it.
Wow, i haven't looked at this time much yet but watching this, especially the end how tigers roaming around your creation is fascinating, i may check it out.
This is really too beautiful for a zoo! Also would be kinda cool if you could make a cliffside enclosure with a waterfall and a red japanese pagoda as a overlook would be really nice to see! Love your vids :)
I am 73 and lived in San Diego for the first 60 years of my life, and in fact, my 6th Grade class visited the San Diego Zoo in 1959, when the trees were still fairly young; now, last year being the last time I was there, the trees are fully mature, and it is wonderful to see them grow all these years! The Zoo is very hilly, naturally following the terrain of the Balboa Park area. It is a world-class Zoo, containing some very famous animal collections. If you can find a Virtual Tour of it somewhere, you will enjoy climbing up and down the roads, without having to exert yourself to do it; it's a fair amount of exercise. However, they have the overhead tour via Skyfari at treetop level, the bus tour, and every INCH of the Zoo is a wonderful presentation of decades of flora and fauna to amaze the first-time visitor to the recurring visitor, like me. Don't forget the Zoo's "sister park", Safari Park in North County San Diego, which when I lived 30 years in Escondido, where that Park is, I saw the cages of the animals before it was ever built, but the first animals there were only encaged, waiting for the Park to be built. We knew the backroad to travel to see their cages where they were stored, animals such as lions and tigers. That was in the early 1970s. Now the Safari Park is totally different than the San Diego Zoo, but the older Zoo helped to provide animals for the Safari Park, which used to be named "The Wild Animal Park". Both are GREAT Zoo Collections!. I too, want to construct in Planet Zoo, my own San Diego Zoo replica, if possible. Our Family lived only 2 miles from the main S.D.Zoo over the years. Our Family house was just sold last year, the last year I paid for a Membership with one of my sons, and we were both able to enjoy the Zoo on a daily basis, for a whole year. Go there. See it. The trees are towering, mature, lush, and full of life. If you want an accurate view of the Zoos, go to Google Earth. I'm sure you can get a detail view from the air anywhere above it. Here's a LINK to start with: ruclips.net/video/w6UzpzMwwT8/видео.html
Thanks for the story, it was a good read! I'll definitely go when I'm in the area - but I'm not sure that'll happen anytime soon, tickets to the US are expensive...
@@Silvarret Not as expensive as tickets to the UK: LOL! I've been to UK 5 times, NZ 3 times, Canada a FEW times, and never Australia or South Africa. :) But I've been all over the USA except for Alaska, Hawaii and Maine. My first trip across the USA was in my Dad's two-tone blue 1955 Super '88 4dr brand NEW Merry Oldsmobile. I'm one of the oldest of Baby Boomers and saw the historical transition from WWII to now. My Dad was at Iwo Jima, Okinawa, and we lived overseas in Izmir for 2 years in the 50's. The world's animals do very much need our attention.
You'll definitely enjoy the San Diego zoo, Silv. It's really well done, and HUGE. Enough that you can ride a bus from one side to the other huge. You'd also like the Cincinnati Zoo, too. Not as big, but it's the "greenest" zoo in America! If you come over, let me know, I'd be happy to show you around.
This looks great! Probably one of the best enclosures I've seen so far! And I totally agree with you about real zoos, I don't really go to them since they really are animal prisons no matter how nice they are.
Im really happy to hear someone being so honest about this game. I think a lot of people try to defend the critical aspects of zoos to justify their love for zoos. Its good to hear someobe at least admitting that zoos arent a good thing. Playing this game of course has nothing to do with supporting zoos, but people playing it need to get more open for critique to zoos and safari parks and i guess animal rights in general!
I don't know if someone has already answered your question about the English version of "ijsberen," but I remember from a college project on zoo ethics that pacing and repetitive behaviors are referred to as "stereotypies." Stereotyped behaviors show up often in polar bears and big cats as you mention in the video. They pace because in the wild they have expansive territories that we struggle to replicate in zoos. Captive elephants are also known to display stereotypies like rocking back and forth on their feet, bobbing or weaving their heads around, and swinging their trunks back and forth.
this is the type of habitat I've been wanting to see - paths and structures that conform to the habitats, not vice-versa. Also, I have to add that the st louis zoo is incorporating raised walkways through habitats as well. Their plans for the upcoming primate habitat are like that.
Fantastic job (as always)! About the Dutch word "ijsberen": there is no perfect synonyme in the English or German language, I´m afraid (please correct me if I´m wrong). In English the best translation would be "pacing" or "behaving restlessly", in German "unruhig hin- und herlaufen". There is the English term "polar bearing" but it means something different as somebody else has mentioned already.
Thank you! Getting pretty familiar, yeah - the trick is learning which ones work well for the animals, they can be very picky about foliage and shelter :')
Check out the Pantera project, they started years ago to work with the Butan government to preserve the tiger wild life. The Tiger trail is a trail that connects India with china for tigers, There are a couple of wild males on this trail who made there theratory on these trails and it helps to preserve the population in that part of asia.
Of course it’s Silvarret who delivers the most beautiful enclosures.
Lol.. i make 10 times better enclosures. This is amateur level
@@Leroy1995 Are you gonna show us?
@@Leroy1995 Yeah right lol!! What a joke!! It aint no way in hell you could beat Silvarret in building!
@David Name some then! because I haven't seen any!!!!
@@Leroy1995 Says the guy with 15 subs...
So glad to see you tackle an enclosure and it was worth the wait! One of the worst things about making YT my job was that I had to shift my focus to being first, rather than necessarily being best. Don't get me wrong, I'm pretty proud of the stuff I've done in the beta, but the fact you can take your time, research a little and go at your own pace is incredible refreshing after a couple of VERY busy weeks in the beta :D Can't wait to see more :)
Also... 'Rockwork ground textures are set in stone'. Noice.
Thank you! I don't think any route is necessarily the best - and I was definitely inspired by some of the earlier builds too - it's just a matter of what your channel's focus is.
Hey... stop wasting time watching videos and go make Planet Zoo video’s so WE can waste time watching videos!
Silv, you've made the grave mistake of sending our expectations sky high now :P
Now every time I look at someone else's exhibit I'm gonna be like, "But where is the architecture of the region where the animal lives? What about the rockwork? And this foliage placement is just unsatisfying!"
Haha, so never come to my streams of planco because there is no detail.
Best habitat i've seen in planet zoo so far. Maybe u can film a guest view for the next habitats too see how it feels. Nice job
D'oh, good point. Will do!
This is so good! I love the architecture as always, but i`d really be happy as a Tiger in there!
the most beautiful habitat I have seen so far!
Reason why watching your videos instead of the other, is that you telling interesting stuff about architecture or e.g. tigers and else.
This enclosure is beautiful! I love how considerate you are of the bengals needs beyond basic terrain & foliage too c:
Your translation of ijsberen was pretty spot on. "Pacing up and down" is how you'd usually translate it :D
I immediately got an idea of what he ment when he translated it to "polar bearing"
I love that you did your homework on Bhutanese architecture and tigers. As a Bhutanese I'd say your pretty spot on on the info and details of the farm house. Great work.
This is absolutely beautiful! I’d love for you to extend this over time and in your own time and make it a beautiful land with a lot of animals all living in their own habitat as such. You’re incredibly talented!
I wish I would have 10% of those skills you have! AMAZING!! Love this habitat and can't wait to see more!:)
nobody:
zoologists: about around maybe… 103.
great habitat. i like you did your homework, also about the bengal tigers
Thanks! I did my homework on this so I could rush the actual homework I had to do 😎
Thug life
I believe I saw on Geekism's video that there's a tool with which you can see the traversable area for the animals. So you'll know for sure where they are and aren't able to go.
You have to press H if I remember correctly.
The radar-looking thing in the bottom left has an option to see traversable and climbable areas with potential escape points, if there are any!
Really enjoyed this, just wish I had the patience or the skull to produce something even half as intricate as this!
This build is gorgeous.

Sowieso tijgers zijn al mijn lievelingsdieren, maar met dit project... Echt de volle 22 minuten genoten van het project ! Ga zo door kerel!
Really enjoyable, relaxing video. Great job! :)
Thank you for mentioning that zoos are not just a positive thing. That’s really important! Makes me appreciate your builds and videos even more !:)

one of the best i've seen, really appreciate your research and also love Bhutanese culture!
6:24 this is why i love watching you play games like this!
that building was amazing. When i try to build in game i have so much trouble and its crazy to see how you and others can make amazing buildings!
This is amazing! Im so happy your enjoying the game because you were one of the RUclipsrs I was really waiting for to upload some videos on planet zoo because I know you could do some amazing work with the game. 😊 Some things that you may not know, just to help out.

San Diego Zoo was a life long bucket list destination for me and 4 years ago, almost to the day I got to go and my god, what an experience.
I'd like to applaud you, you are the only one (I've heard so far) who is making planet zoo videos, that has mentioned the ethical side of the zoos. 👏👏👏

Glad to hear you still play games for enjoyment! and not just for monetary gain
Absolutely wonderful! Wish I could just keep watching the views.
Hope you do more
Holy tigers! All of us with the beta have just been trying to figure out the gameplay, trying to make some nice looking enclosures, and Silvarret is over here crushing it.
Lol, plays a zoo game, reads a PDF about architecture. Totally a silvarret move, haha. Looks great, man. Glad to see you're enjoying the game.
Wow, i haven't looked at this time much yet but watching this, especially the end how tigers roaming around your creation is fascinating, i may check it out.
This is really too beautiful for a zoo!
Also would be kinda cool if you could make a cliffside enclosure with a waterfall and a red japanese pagoda as a overlook would be really nice to see!

stunning, cant wait to see what else you create!

The trees are towering, mature, lush, and full of life. If you want an accurate view of the Zoos, go to Google Earth. I'm sure you can get a detail view from the air anywhere above it. Here's a LINK to start with:

Thanks for the story, it was a good read! I'll definitely go when I'm in the area - but I'm not sure that'll happen anytime soon, tickets to the US are expensive...
@@Silvarret Not as expensive as tickets to the UK: LOL! I've been to UK 5 times, NZ 3 times, Canada a FEW times, and never Australia or South Africa. :) But I've been all over the USA except for Alaska, Hawaii and Maine. My first trip across the USA was in my Dad's two-tone blue 1955 Super '88 4dr brand NEW Merry Oldsmobile. I'm one of the oldest of Baby Boomers and saw the historical transition from WWII to now. My Dad was at Iwo Jima, Okinawa, and we lived overseas in Izmir for 2 years in the 50's. The world's animals do very much need our attention.
You're awesome man! New subscriber here! Can't wait the next part.
It's really beautiful
This is breathtakingly beautiful.
This was really cool thanks for doing it!
Jeeesus...absolutely gorgeous and educational? Instant subscribe!
You'll definitely enjoy the San Diego zoo, Silv. It's really well done, and HUGE. Enough that you can ride a bus from one side to the other huge. You'd also like the Cincinnati Zoo, too. Not as big, but it's the "greenest" zoo in America! If you come over, let me know, I'd be happy to show you around.
This looks great! Probably one of the best enclosures I've seen so far! And I totally agree with you about real zoos, I don't really go to them since they really are animal prisons no matter how nice they are.
That's so, so beautiful. Had fun to watch. :)
Im really happy to hear someone being so honest about this game. I think a lot of people try to defend the critical aspects of zoos to justify their love for zoos. Its good to hear someobe at least admitting that zoos arent a good thing. Playing this game of course has nothing to do with supporting zoos, but people playing it need to get more open for critique to zoos and safari parks and i guess animal rights in general!
I don't know if someone has already answered your question about the English version of "ijsberen," but I remember from a college project on zoo ethics that pacing and repetitive behaviors are referred to as "stereotypies." Stereotyped behaviors show up often in polar bears and big cats as you mention in the video. They pace because in the wild they have expansive territories that we struggle to replicate in zoos. Captive elephants are also known to display stereotypies like rocking back and forth on their feet, bobbing or weaving their heads around, and swinging their trunks back and forth.
As always, incredible!
Silv last week I was at the San Diego Zoo and you NEED to go it is amazing
-but wait, what if the tigers really CAN escape?-
This is beautiful, nice work!
I'm so excited for this series!!
Why are you so good at everything!
Epic work as ever
I love learning random things like Dutch words in your vids. :D
this is the type of habitat I've been wanting to see - paths and structures that conform to the habitats, not vice-versa. Also, I have to add that the st louis zoo is incorporating raised walkways through habitats as well. Their plans for the upcoming primate habitat are like that.
Pretty nice. I hope there will be some more Planet Zoo videos
Really good buildings and I am enjoyed
Fantastic job (as always)! About the Dutch word "ijsberen": there is no perfect synonyme in the English or German language, I´m afraid (please correct me if I´m wrong). In English the best translation would be "pacing" or "behaving restlessly", in German "unruhig hin- und herlaufen". There is the English term "polar bearing" but it means something different as somebody else has mentioned already.
Damn that looks amazing!!!
I looks so easy for the tigers to climb some of these walls into the paths
Love your videos, gobsmacked by your talent, my zoo will look like a bunch of boxes 🤣
Silvarret has entered the building!
The glas front at the lake reminds me of the tiger enclosure in the zoo zurich.
"The view of the tigers from here, is okay I guess 😐"
Been loving your designs! Including the blueprints in the Steam workshop. Not sure why they don't show up in my game, but I really like them!
Definitely my favourite habitat on youtube so far! I love how you do your research first, and really use that in your advantage. Beautiful habitat!
Thank you! For the Indian blueprints, you unfortunately need to have all the scenery themes researched in the in-game workshop
@@Silvarret Ah did you use some from the other two researchable themes too? I have the Indian one fully researched, but not the other two yet!
'Just building a simple shelter'.... *head explodes*
This is amazing! I want to visit this zoo.
For me this game is really depth in the building, immersive, really detail on everything and realistic, this game is for zoo architect himself lol
Damn, that foliage work is just stunning! Are you getting anywhere near familiar with all the pieces yet?
Thank you! Getting pretty familiar, yeah - the trick is learning which ones work well for the animals, they can be very picky about foliage and shelter :')
holy shit this looks amazing! If this was a real zoo, I wouldn't feel guilty to enter the animal prison
Pacing is the correct word to describe the stereotypical behaviour of repeatedly walking back and forth.
I love this game already
Check out the Pantera project, they started years ago to work with the Butan government to preserve the tiger wild life. The Tiger trail is a trail that connects India with china for tigers, There are a couple of wild males on this trail who made there theratory on these trails and it helps to preserve the population in that part of asia.
Silv you’re a fucking God
