Nile Monitor

Varanus niloticus

Difficult (Promiscuous)

The **Nile Monitor** (*Varanus niloticus*) is a large African lizard featured in the Standard Edition of *Planet Zoo*.

## Zoopedia Description

### General

**Population In the Wild:** Unknown

The Nile monitor (or Varanus niloticus) is a large species of reptile that lives in the non-desert area of Sub-Saharan Africa. They have also been introduced to the USA - specifically California and Florida - where they are regarded as an invasive species.

Nile monitors much prefer environments close to water, tending to live near rivers. Both sexes look the same and are between 120 and 220cm long, with more than half of this length being their tail. Adults tend to be brown to green, with dark stripes on their body and yellow spots on their legs and head. Meanwhile, juveniles are black with bright yellow spots.

The species is not endangered but they are exploited in certain areas of Africa where they are hunted for their skin and meat. Their body fat is also believed to have healing properties in traditional medicine, although there is no scientific evidence for this.

### Social

Nile monitors are solitary animals and prefer to be alone.

### Reproduction

After tracking a female by scent, a male will follow her until one of two scenarios: either she allows him to mate with her, or he gives up. If two or more males meet when tracking females then they will fight, and a smaller monitor will yield to the larger one. Having mated, a female will carry her eggs with her until the rainy season. After a rainfall, she will dig a nest in the soft ground before covering the eggs over, and these will incubate for 3 to 10 months depending on the environmental conditions. The newly hatched young must dig their way out of the nest and may need to wait for it to rain to be able to get out, although some mothers do return to their nests to help. After hatchlings emerge, they live independently and reach sexual maturity at 3 to 4 years old.

## Trivia

### Zoopedia Fun Facts

* Many female Nile monitors break into termite nests and lay their eggs inside them because the termites repair the damage afterwards and thus shelter the eggs.
* When in danger or antagonised, the Nile monitor will attack with a powerful whip from its long tail.
* Nile monitors are preyed upon by martial eagles, which can pick up and carry a lizard weighing up to 4kg.
* Nile monitors are causing the crocodile and alligator population in Florida to decrease because they are so effective at robbing their nests of eggs and hatchlings.
* Nile monitors never stop growing; they continue to get larger throughout their lives.

Indian Rhinoceros

Rhinoceros unicornis

Easy (Polygynous)

The **Indian Rhinoceros** (*Rhinoceros unicornis*) is a large Asian ungulate featured in the Standard Edition of *Planet Zoo*.

## Zoopedia Description

### General

**Population in the Wild:** 2,575

Also known as the 'Greater One-Horned Rhinoceros', the Indian Rhinoceros (or Rhinoceros unicornis) is a large grazing ungulate native to the river basins of Northern India, Nepal and Bhutan. The species can be distinguished by its short, thick horn and brown-grey bumpy skin, which is often likened to plate armor. Male rhinos are bigger than females - the former averaging 4620lb and 12.1ft long, compared to the latter's average of 3520lb and 10.56ft. As well as their difference in size, males look different thanks to their large neck folds.

Throughout the early 1900's, the Indian rhino was almost driven to extinction through a combination of sport hunting and their habitat being converted to farmland. These acts reduced the numbers of wild Indian rhinos drastically. While the threats have decreased in modern day, poachers are still a constant danger to them, seeking to sell their valuable horns as a sought-after ingredient in traditional medicine.

There are newer threats to the rhino, too, including invasive plants overtaking their grazing plains and their competition with livestock for food and space. Because of this, rhino populations exist almost exclusively in National Parks where they are well protected - so much so that the largely successful conservation efforts have led to an ongoing increase in their numbers.

### Social

Male Indian rhinos are solitary, only interacting to reproduce with females or to challenge other males over territory and mates. Females may be solitary or may live in a temporary, loosely bonded group of several females and their offspring.

### Reproduction

Dominant males establish their territory over a stretch of river; an area that females will visit to feed and wallow. If a female is receptive, she will signal to the male; in return he will track her scent and chase her until she allows him to mate. Females are pregnant for 15 to 16 months before giving birth to a single calf which, after weaning, will begin to distance itself from its mother. At around 5 years old, the calf will leave to establish his or her own home range in the wild, but it won't be until the age of 10 that bulls are likely to acquire their own river territory.

Zoo Entrance

The **Zoo Entrance**, or its full name **Zoo Entrance Gate**, is a guest facility that can be built in *Planet Zoo*.

## Description

Guest after being spawned from Guest Spawner need to pass through the Zoo Entrance before using any of the zoo services. When guest pass the Zoo Entrance, they must pay the ticket price.

From the Zoo Entrance popup, player can edit the tickets price for Adult Guest and Child Guest. If the price is too high, guest may immidiately return to the nearest Guest Spawner, refusing to pay the ticket price (counted as Missed Sale). Player can also edit zoo opening hours from the Zoo Entrance popup. These settings are synched between all Entrances of the same zoo, and can also be edited from the Zoo/Zoo Overview tab, Overview section.

Beside editing, players can also view some statistic at the popup. This including the number of zoo visitors last year, zoo ticket sales last year, missed sales last year, lifetime visitors and lifetime ticket sales. These are mutual shared between Entrances. However, each Entrance has different "Recent thoughts" section, showing the thoughts of guest as they react to the gate. These thoughts can vary betweeen "Zoo tickets are underpriced!", "The zoo ticket price is great!", "Zoo tickets are overpriced!".

### Usage

 Although looking like other Path objects, which require placing on Path, **Zoo Entrance** item itself is a path (Width = 4) with gates on top of it. As such, the Zoo Entrance item cannot be placed on top of a Path.

Zoo Entrance cannot be customized. However, because it include a path, the path underneath can be recolored by placing a path on top of the Zoo Entrance.

## Trivia

 Despite being called "Zoo Entrance", the 2 new items in Europe Pack are actually decorated guest spawners.

Striped Skunk

Mephitis mephitis

Easy (Polygynous)

The **Striped Skunk** (*Mephitis mephitis*) is a small North American musteloid featured in the Twilight Pack DLC for *Planet Zoo*.

## Zoopedia Description

### General

**Population In Wild:** Unknown

The striped skunk (or Mephitis mephitis) is a small mammal found throughout North America, including southern Canada, the US and northern Mexico. It is a stocky animal with short legs, a broad build and bushy tail. Its narrow face has a pointed snout, and small round ears. Striped skunks are covered in thick and coarse black and white fur and are named for their distinctive pattern: black fur with a white scalp that leads into two stripes along their back and onto their tall. Male skunks are 15.2 inches to 18.4 inches long with a 13.2 inches to 16.4 inches long tail, and weigh 4.4 lb to 12.1 lb. Females are slightly smaller at 13.6 inches to 16.4 inches head-body length, a 12 inches to 14.8 inches long tail, and a weight of 4 lb to 10.8 lb.

Striped Skunks are considered a species of least concern and are not endangered. Humans have tamed and kept striped skunks for fur farming, as pest control and pets for centuries.

### Social

The striped skunk is a solitary animal, although male and female skunks may form temporary pairings or harems during the mating season.

### Reproduction

During the mating season from February to April, males will roam far and track females by the scent of their urine. A female in oestrus will act submissively towards an approaching male and allow him to mount her. He will stay with her and defend her from competitors for about 35 days. During a breeding season, he may accumulate and guard a harem of multiple females.

When the male stops guarding her, the female retreats to her den. Following a pregnancy of 59 to 77 days, she will give birth to a litter of 1 to 10 cubs, on average 4 or 5. The infants remain in the den until 6 weeks old, at which age they begin eating solid food and accompanying their mother on foraging trips. They are fully weaned by 10 weeks old, and become independent soon after.

Striped skunks reach sexual maturity between 10 and 12 months old.

Giant Desert Hairy Scorpion

Hadrurus arizonensis

Difficult (Polygynous)

The **Giant Desert Hairy Scorpion** (*Hadrurus arizonensis*) is a large North American arachnid featured in the Standard Edition of *Planet Zoo*.

It is one of the game's Exhibit Animals.

## Zoopedia Informaton

### General

**Population in the Wild:** Unknown

A large species of arachnid native to the deserts of the Southern USA and Mexico, the giant desert hairy scorpion (or *Hadrurus arizonensis*)is a predator specialising in ambush. Typically yellow, tan or pale green and with darker areas of colour on its back, the scorpion spends its time burried beneath the sand or under rocks, attacking insects and small vertebrates with its stinger. This immobilses its prey before the scorpion can then grab it with its jaws. Once fully grown, the scorpion can be between 10 and 18 cm in length and, despite the pain caused, the sting is not usually dangerous to humans.

### Social

Giant desert hairy scorpions are solitary animals and are likely to kill rival scorpions if encountered.

### Reproduction

When a male and female scorpion come across one another, the first test is whether they are both receptive. If so, the male will grab the female from the side and administer up to 10 'sexual stings' to subdue her. Then, he uses his pedipalps (mouth parts) to grab hers and pulls her back and forth across the ground, trying to find an area of substrate that is suitable to complete the mating procedure. Once one is located, he will deposit the sperm from his abdomen on the ground, pulling the acquiescent female onto the sperm.

At this point, she will take the sperm up via a pore on her abdomen to fertilize the eggs. The young will be incubated for 6 to 12 months, at which point the mother will give birth to between 25 and 35 live young. These climb onto her back and will be carried around until they are 3-weeks-old. At this point, they have molted and are tough enough to be independent. It will be at 4-years-old that these young scorpions reach sexual maturity themselves.

Walkthrough Exhibit

**Walkthrough Exhibit** is a new exhibit building, introduced in 1.11 Update. Currently, all animals that can use Walkthrough Exhibit are Exhibit Animals. However, only these animals can use the Walkthrough Exhibit and they cannot use the smaller Exhibit.

## Descriptions

The Walkthrough Exhibit is the name of the item in Facilities/Animal Exhibits section. It is 12mx20m, and for animals with more complex behaviors that guests can view from the inside as well.

Guest can view the exhibited animals both from the interior path, or paths alongside windows that aren't closed. In some case, guest can even interact with the animal, as the case of Grasslands Animal Pack butterflies.

## Layouts

Similar to Exhibit, player can customize the layout of the Walkthrough Exhibits. There are 3 levels, each with 3 options. Player may need to research the animal in Vet Research to unlock these options.

## Customize

Placing an animal with set a prefix customization that fit the animal. Each animal (and when its empty) customization are limited to certain options. For example:

* For the Egyptian Fruit Bat, the presets are walls and ceiling are Wire Mesh, the floor is none and doors are PVC Strip Curtain.
* For the Grasslands Animal Pack butterflies, the presets are walls and ceiling are Netting, the floor is Mulch and doors are PVC Strip Curtain.
* For the Brown-throated Sloth, the presets are walls and ceiling are Wire Mesh, the floor is Mulch and the doors are PVC Strip Curtain.

### Walls and Ceilings

Players can customize the material of the 4 walls and ceiling independently. Player can also choose to sync the changes to these 5 settings.
Here are the list of options for Walls and Ceilings:

* None
* Solid
* Glass
* Netting (for Butterflies and Empty)
* Wire Mesh (for Bats, Sloths, and Empty)

### Floor

Here are the list of options for Floor:

* None
* Mulch (for Butterflies and Sloths)
* Solid (for Bats and Empty)

### Doors

Players can customize the doors independently. Here are the list of options for the Doors:

* None
* PVC Strip Curtain.

### Notes

* All floor options are invisible if the Walkthrough Exhibit is placing on the floor. Placing it on height will clearly show the floor material.
* The Walkthrough Exhibit has a Path with 12m length and 4m width. Player can customize the path by placing path on top to overide the path settings.

## Trivia

* By making the Walkthrough Exhibits null, players can place them inside of a walkthrough habitat. The habitat animals will walk through the WE, as if it was part of their enclosure. This gives players many dynamic combinations.
* While technically called Walkthrough Exhibits, it is possible to prevent guests from entering. Set up the WE to go alongside a path, making that side of the WE either null, wire mesh, or glass. Then, make sure your path layout allows staff to enter but not guests (this can be done with staff paths). Guests will still be able to observe the animals inside without entering the exhibit.
Western Diamondback Rattlesnake

Crotalus atrox

Easy (Promiscuous)

The **Western Diamondback Rattlesnake** (*Crotalus atrox*) is a large North American snake featured in the Standard Edition of *Planet Zoo*.

## Zoopedia descreption

### General

**Population in the Wild:** Unknown

The Western diamondback rattlesnake (or *Crotalus atrox)* is a species of venomous snake native to the deserts, grassland and scrubland of the USA and Mexico; so named for the pattern of grey and brown scales on its back. It reaches an average length of 4ft - although a specimen of 7ft in length has been reported - and males are larger than females. It is a dangerous species that will strike if it perceives threat.

### Social

Western diamondback rattlesnakes are solitary animals. It*'*srare they will encounter each other except when males search for mating partners, and they do not interact in the wild otherwise.

### Reproduction

Males search for females by tracking pheromonal signals; the female will signal her receptivity by becoming passive and allowing the male to climb on top of her. He will put his whole body on top and wrap his tail underneath hers, and then they will mate. Between 6 to 7 months later, the mother will give birth to a litter of 8 to 25 offspring, which are independent from birth. They will reach sexual maturity by 3 years old.

Trade Centre

The **Trade Centre** is a staff building that can be built in *Planet Zoo*.

## Description

This facility is where animals enter and exit the zoo.

The Trade Centre acts as a gateway for animals into the zoo. It is essential for bringing in any new animal.

Animals sent to the trade centre will be put into storage - with their age and needs frozen - and can then be released to the wild or traded for cash or Conservation Credits in Franchise Mode.

Any adopted animals will appear in the Trade Centre, where a caretaker or vet will collect them and transport them to the desired destination when ordered to do so.

The Trade Centre has separate capacities for habitat animals, exhibit animals and rewarded animals. If the capacity is met, no more animals can be adopted or put up for trade.

Trade Centres require power to function, and should not be placed in locations guests can visit.
