Additionally, the game even has its own in-game encyclopedia (dubbed Zoopedia) with additional information on each species’ taxonomy, ecology and conservation. The game puts great emphasis on environmental education, depicting the importance of zoos as tools in conservation and rewarding the player for fulfilling specific conservation goals, such as reintroducing individuals from endangered species to the wild. With animals as its central element, ZT2 offers the player dozens of different species, each with its own conservation status, enrichment needs and habitat preferences. In Zoo Tycoon 2 (henceforth referred to as ZT2), the player’s goal is to build a successful zoo, which involves not only creating an aesthetically pleasing design but also making sure it is able to fulfill the needs of both your guests and, most importantly, your animals. Zoo Tycoon 2 is a zoo-building simulation game developed by Blue Fang Games and originally released in 2004 as a sequel to the classic Zoo Tycoon game.

However, since APE’s UI is incomplete (it was impossible to edit attributes such as whether or not the animal eats guests) and it produced errors that had to be manually corrected, eventually the community created their own editor. APE, by default, was the go-to editor for over a decade. Back in the day, there was a software called APE (Animal Property/Program Editor, or more appropriately, Always Producing Errors) that allowed anyone to define sprites and attributes for custom animals. Good news, if you only want to make simple mods (like animals), you don’t need to know how to code.
