Do you possess the skills and business-savvy to whip your zoo into a well-oiled machine, or will it all go to the dogs?
First thing on your list of to-dos: conceive a guest-friendly spot for families to enjoy that's well within budget. Hire a team of experts to help you construct the zoo to your specifications. You're in total control. Oversee landscape architects, gardeners, zoo keepers, veterinarians and scientists as they help produce the zenith of all zoos. With more than 80 realistically rendered animals and plant species on exhibit, your zoo is sure to have something fun for everyone.
