Trivia[]

  • Despite being called a king vulture, the Zoo Tycoon 2 ambient more closely resembles classic, cartoon vultures which, in turn, looks most similar to the white-rumped vulture
  • It is unclear as to which fish species the blenny from Zoo Tycoon 2: Marine Mania is meant to represent, as in closer resemble some species of goby more-so than some blenny species.
  • Although the macaw in Zoo Tycoon 2 visually resembles a blue-and-yellow macaw, the model's texture materials use the codename of "MacawRedGreen" (indicating it was at one point intended to be a red-and-green macaw). It is unknown why the texture represents a different species from the codename, or if the species was deliberately changed late into development.
