Do you think you guys could come up with exhibits or enclosures that would immerse the ponies into the habitats of the animals like what places such as Congo Gorilla Forest or Jungleworld do here in our world? Here are my examples.
Everfree Forest Trek- This award winning facility features dragons, a pride of manticores, dwarf hydras, cockatrices( with special glass made to prevent ponies from turning into stone), timber wolves, a walkthrough aviary with several species of bird and even fruit bats and phoenixes.
Wild Neighsia- Replicates all parts of neighsa from the teak forests of Indneigha to the humid jungles of Saddlematra. Features tigers, elephants, several species of deer, antelope, birds, monkeys, bears(including the giant panda), rhinos, dholes, orangutans, gibbons, leopards, gaur, banteng, and alot more including several mythical creatures.
Zoo Center- The remains from when this metropolis of wildlife was simply a menagerie of exotics kept by the royal sisters. Similar to the Zoo Center in the Bronx. This building has been repurposed as an education center and tells the complete history of the Zoological Society of Canterlot and has classrooms for internship. Features old cages with no animals that ponies can walk into.
Wilds of Zebrica- Like Wild Neighsa, this complex also covers a whole continent and has zebras who grew up with these animals talking about their lifestyles. Features lions, elephants, giraffes, rhinos, leopards, cheetahs, wild dogs, hyenas, buffalo, hippos, crocodiles, gorillas, chimpanzees, baboons, multiple species of monkeys, antelope and birds and tons more.
