I feel like a lot of "dinosaurs in human captivity" media really overestimates how hard large dinosaurs would be to contain. Like you would never put them behind a fence, or put them in a situation where they could break containment in any way. You'd dig a 20 foot moat and let gravity keep them in. Most of the large herbivores would likely just be content to live in a large field with infinite food the way many modern large herbivores are just chill with human captivity if their basic needs are cared for.
Feeding them and anything involving administering veterinary and grooming care directly would be the hard part. But "the damn ankylosaur won't hold still long enough for our forklift team to remove the branch caught between the folds of its armour and the vet has no idea what to administer to the chaff site to prevent an infection" and "the moody teenage argentinosaurus won't come into the aircraft carrier sized barn during a thunderstorm where he is seriously at risk of being struck by lightning" aren't quite as cinematic as "the t-rex broke out of the ugly as, view ruining fence we built around it"
Your venomous serpent bites you, and the clock is ticking. America’s zookeepers—and a cooler full of rare antivenom—are your best chance of
The great thing about going to Other Zoos is that you get to see animals that aren't at Your Zoo!

I finally have my first zoo pass. Indy zoo member baby!
Very cool! Congrats!
Indy zoo they can never make me hate you
I love Indy Zoo! Definitely the most unique dolphin underwater viewing.
Hey Mando! Been a while. Recently, there has been a lot of conversation about Planet Zoo 2. Specifically, Frontier Dev's response about cetaceans in captivity and what that means for the game. "Whilst we know dolphins, whales and porpoises are popular species in the natural world, it is important to us that all animals represented in Planet Zoo 2 have environments that best reflect their requirements. We’re mindful that there is a lot of ongoing research on conservation for cetaceans and how re-wilding programmes for species within this group are handled by modern aquariums. As with a number of other species, we're keeping a close eye on how the conservation community's work evolves in this area." What are your thoughts on this?
Hi Apollo! Hope all is well. So I'm not a gamer, but I know that Planet Zoo is pretty highly regarded, and I believe they actually collaborated with the AZA on designing the game. Which is probably why this answer is a little more diplomatic than I expected.
Honestly though, I imagine keeping cetaceans out of the game is simply to avoid backlash. Ironic, considering you can keep elephants, great apes, large sharks, and other sensitive and complex species in the game. There's also the fact it's... a game. It's pretend. There are no real animals involved. What better way to explore what the ideal zoological cetacean habitat would look like than in a video game where there are no real animals or budgets to worry about? You could even build a sea pen! There have also been numerous recent scientific publications (namely the Cetacean Welfare Project) exploring what aspects of a cetacean's environment are most essential to their welfare. Why not build off of that?
Overall, a predictable but still disappointing and nonsensical move.
