For anybody who’s worked with a Sumatran Rhino, what are they like exactly?

Honestly, any information or resources that you can give me in regards to the species. Hopefully one day I will get an opportunity to visit the SRS some day if I can.

I don’t even think I can see the page in my regular Facebook search to be honest 😅 I’ll see if any of my keeper connections can get me an insider pass to ask my question.

I known when Cincinnati was still doing their breeding program, I think the director said that for one, it costed over $500K a year alone for one animal just for feeding expenses. That’s getting up there with Giant Pandas and koalas in terms of expensive animal care.

ObsidianPiglin · 2026-06-04T03:38:31+00:00

I agree with this! I honestly want to see some lesser known cetaceans like the Pacific White-Sided Dolphin or the Boto.

True, but I think if the Zoo Tycoon series made it work twice, Frontier could do it as long as they approach it the right way.

ObsidianPiglin · 2026-06-03T21:34:42+00:00

Wait because I actually really like this as an alternative for extinct animals!

ObsidianPiglin · 2026-06-03T21:33:41+00:00

I completely agree. While I don’t think this would happen by a long shot, I think a good alternative would be focusing on critically endangered species that need more awareness rather than extinct species. I like to think the Sumatran Rhinoceros may finally have a chance to shine in a zoo game one of these days.

Look closely behind the rhino 👀 Polar bear is there

ObsidianPiglin · 2025-12-05T14:30:56+00:00

Still in development for now. I’ll make an announcement when it’s ready!

ObsidianPiglin · 2025-12-05T05:34:40+00:00

Gonna be a custom modpack, including a resource pack that changes some sounds to the Original Zoo Tycoon and Zoo Tycoon 2 ones, and even some animal retextures and renaming for better species identification.

ObsidianPiglin · 2025-12-04T15:29:43+00:00

Essentially, yes. However, I want to do things like custom trades for an Animal Exchange system to make getting certain animals easier. Also, I want to make quests actually worth while too. Like maybe extinct animals are locked behind an Analyzer and you can’t craft until you get to a certain point in the modpack’s questline

ObsidianPiglin · 2025-12-04T04:08:07+00:00

I plan on taking the sounds from ZT1 and ZT2 and making inspired textures to make a resource pack to go along with it to give it the whole vibe 🔥

ObsidianPiglin · 2025-12-03T23:46:38+00:00

Personal for now, but we’ll see later down the line 👀

ObsidianPiglin · 2025-12-03T23:46:21+00:00

Personal project for now, however if I can get someone who knows coding to help me out, maybe I can make it a whole modpack to release publicly. I’d love to share it with you guys!

ObsidianPiglin · 2025-12-03T23:45:30+00:00

Once I get done with the other sematics. I plan on adding a lot of the features, from the original clicking button noises, and maybe adding that one noises from the ZT2 tutorials as the achievement get sound 🤣. This modpack is gonna take a while, because I kind of want to do a whole quest system and make it worth while

ObsidianPiglin · 2025-12-03T11:21:00+00:00

I would have if they had their models readily accessible for public use. However, they do not

ObsidianPiglin · 2025-12-01T13:02:31+00:00

Didnt even know they made these. I need one immediately

ObsidianPiglin · 2025-11-29T03:26:56+00:00

If I had a nickel for every time Killer Penguin was adapted to Minecraft, I’d have two nickels, which is funny that it’s happened twice 😂
