Author: Moondawg The Blesbok, or Blesbuck, (Damaliscus albifrons) is a subspecies of the Bontebok and it is purplish antelope with a distinctive white face and forehead. hey are close relatives of the Bontebok and are only found in South Africa (mostly in protected herds). They were first discovered in the 17th century, but it is not known whether this is because they are a relatively new species or because they have been so elusive. The Blesbok, or Blesbuck, (Damaliscus dorcas phillpsi) is related to the Bontebok (Damaliscus dorcas dorcas) and it is purplish antelope with a distinctive white face and forehead. Its white face is the origin of its name, because ‘bles’ is the Afrikaans word for blaze. Although they are close relatives of the Bontebok and they can interbreed creating an animal known as the Bontebles they do not share habitat, the Bontebok being found in large numbers on from as far south as Eastern Cape, the plains of the Free State and the Transvaal Highveld. They are a plains species and dislike wooded areas. The blesbuck is indigenous to South Africa and are found in large numbers in all national parks with open grasslands. They were first discovered in the 17th century, and were found in numbers so numerous that herds that reached from horizon to horizon where documented The neck and the top of the back of the blesbuck are brown. Lower down on the flanks and buttocks, the coloring becomes darker. The belly, the inside of the buttocks and the area up to the base of the tail are white. Blesbucks can be easily differentiated from other antelopes because they have a distinct white face and forehead. The legs are brown with a white patch behind the top part of the front legs. Lower legs whitish. Both sexes have horns, female horns are slightly more slender. The blesbok differs from the bontebok by having less white on the coat and the blaze on the face, which is usually divided, their coats are also a lighter brown than that of the bontebok. The length of their horns averages at around 38cm. Male adult blesboks average around 70kg, females average lower, at around 61kg. Blesboks can be found in open velds and open plains of South Africa. Preferred habitat is open grasslands with water. Blesbok by Moondawg.zip

Designer: Moondawg The horse belongs to an order known as the Perissodactyls, or "odd-toed ungulates", which all share hoofed feet and an odd number of toes on each foot. Horses appeared to be absent from the Americas until the Spanish Conquistadors brought domestic horses from Europe in the 16th Century, and escaped horses quickly established large wild herds. The early naturalist Buffon suggested in the 1760s that this was an indication of inferiority of fauna in the New World, then later reconsidered this idea. William Clark's 1807 expedition to Big Bone Lick found "leg and foot bones of the Horses" which were included with other fossils sent to Thomas Jefferson and evaluated by the anatomist Caspar Wistar, but neither commented on the significance of this find. During the Beagle survey expedition the young naturalist Charles Darwin had remarkable success with fossil hunting in Patagonia. On 10 October 1833 at Santa Fe, Argentina, he was "filled with astonishment" when he found a horse's tooth in the same stratum as fossil giant armadillos, and wondered if it might have been washed down from a later layer, but concluded that this was "not very probable". After the expedition returned in 1836 the anatomist Richard Owen confirmed that the tooth was from an extinct species which he subsequently named Equus curvidens, and remarked that "This evidence of the former existence of a genus, which, as regards South America, had become extinct, and has a second time been introduced into that Continent, is not one of the least interesting fruits of Mr. Darwin's palæontological discoveries." In 1848 a study On the fossil horses of America by Joseph Leidy systematically examined Pleistocene horse fossils from various collections including that of the Academy of Natural Sciences and concluded that there hadbeen at least two ancient horse species in North America, Equus curvidens and another which he named Equus americanus, but a decade later he found that name had already been taken and renamed it Equus complicatus. In the same year he visited Europe and was introduced by Owen to Darwin. Also included in this pack is the Hipparion and the Merychippus both files have been updated to work with ZT so you won't need DD or CC to use them. This pack is a combined pack so if you already have Hipparion and Merychippus then the single files will need to be removed from the update or dlupdate folder. EOTHMD_2008.ztd

Creator/Designer/Author: Laura 'Tamara" Henson and Kangorillophant Language: English Bugs/Information/Notes: This pack contains six North American species/subspecies of deer and one bouncy ride. There are two minor bugs: When at a distance the antlers of the mule and black tailed deer sometimes become distorted. This corrects itself when you come closer however. The legs of the Peary and Dawson's Caribou calfs sometimes flash black, why I do not know as it does not do this with the other deer. Requirements: ZT2 and Endangered Species, Extinct Animals is needed for the extinct icon for Dawson's Caribou.

Creator/Designer/Author: Laura 'Tamara' Henson Language: English Bugs/Information/Notes: A pack of prehistoric Australian herbivores/gentle giants for your zoo tycoon 2 game. It includes a giant flamingo (Phoenicontius eyrensis), The Giant Kangaroo (Macropus ferragus, the largest kangaroo ever at 10 feet tall), The Marsupial Tapir (Paleochestes), The Giant Wombat (Phascolonus gigas), the marsupial rhino (Zygomaturus trilobus), and the giant koala (Phascolarctus stirtoni). Only the Paleochestes (Marsupial tapir) has a bug I was unable to fix. All variants look the same color when one zooms out but the colors resolve when you zoom in so it's a very minor bug that can easily be ignored Requirements: ZT2, Endangered Species is needed for all but the flamingo, kangaroo, and wombat. Extinct Animals needed for the extinct icon in all.
