Zoo Tycoon: Dinosaur Digs is a expansion pack for Zoo Tycoon. It was released on May 19, 2002. This was the 1st expansion pack for the Zoo Tycoon series. It was later followed by Marine Mania on October 17, 2002 (exactly 1 year after the original game), and was eventually bundled with it and the original game in a compilation pack called Zoo Tycoon: Complete Collection.
Animals
Dinosaur Digs adds 26 new prehistoric animals and 1 mythical animal to adopt.
The larger carnivores will ram down any non-electric fence, and a damaged electric fence will also be broken. A way to bypass this and use cheaper fencing is to surround an exhibit with water, although it will not work for ones that can swim. The escaped dinosaurs will harass and in some cases even eat guests.
