About me: I'm Plastic Swans and I do a lot of wacky stuff with Planet Zoo, like racing the animals and time trials. I like to call this kind of thing wholesome chaos and that's what I try to do most of all on the channel. I also make one-off habitats and zoo's, although I tend to forget to finish any of the zoo's I start. I also made the Simple Habitat Series for Planet Zoo, a suite of easy habitats for every animal in the game.
About Planet Zoo: Build a world for wildlife in Planet Zoo. From the creators of Planet Coaster and Zoo Tycoon comes the ultimate zoo sim. Construct detailed habitats, manage your zoo, and meet authentic living animals who think, feel and explore the world you create around them.

Such a great challenge. I really enjoy your videos. I would love it to see a remake of your first videos (e.g. the Baby race) with all the new animals included.
It's on the list! I might wait until the game is in its final development stages, to capture them all. Am planning on a new speed one though

If you did this n franchise mode you would have a lot of conservation credits
8:30 that's a lot of teddy bears!
I was thrilled watching that little enclosure grow! So many baby bears all smushed together!
This is incredible, the time spent alone on this is mind boggling. Im very happy at least one tortoise made it to 100!
8:10 Are Niania and Mialy really the OGs.
THISI IS A PUPPEY MILL
Looking at the leaderboard (14:14) a lot of birds and reptiles which wasn't very surprising however what surprises me is that a few tree dwelling mammals made it to the leaderboard which I am very pleasantly surprised about!
Same!
nice, and what's that music called during the death montage?
Thanks! The song is 'Good to You' by LED Monster on Epidemic Sound
@@PlasticSwans and also how many babies did the dhole have before both OG parents passed away?
I feel like starting with some animals almost elders was extremely unfair unless you started with Galapagos tortoises that were already 100+ years old there's no reason they should have failed, as, if given good genetics a herd size of just 3 females and 1 male (which should be achievable in just 25 years can produce 252 babies before the first ones even reach adulthood, I CALL A MISTRIAL
Yes a fairer system would've been to breed 2 separate pairs of each animal and then start the challenge with the babies produced from those pairs just as they mature. However, time-wise that would double how long it took to run the challenge, which was 50+ hours to set up, manage and record so many animals all at the same time. I don't think I have the willpower to run a challenge to that extent
@@PlasticSwans Not necessarily, the adult age as two different stages, 'young adult' and 'adult' It would have perhaps made more sense to ensure all participants began in the 'young adult' stage, regardless of the aquisition method
In sandbox mode, you're stuck with RNG on animals available in the trade market. Some, like pandas, there's never young adults freshly matured available (likely to make it more of a challenge to breed based on the conservation status) so I was left choosing best available. Believe me, I churned through 20+ animals for the difficult species to find young ones with good fertility stats, I didn't just go with the first ones to come up. With 140-odd species to get through I went with best available without turning the challenge into a month-long project to breed the perfect starting pair for each.
@@PlasticSwans oh that is true, I didn't think of that limitation
Oh, the irony - a video about birth complete with a death montage lol
Circle of life, innit
to be honest, the conservation pack animals wouldn't make it close to 10 babies, the closet would be the amur leopard but the przewalski's horse, scimitar oryx and siamang would just get below 20 or 10
Correction. Binturongs quietly appeared on the leaderboard at the end of part 2
These are always fun to watch!
Agreed
That is admittedly a strange choice of music for the fallen teams.
Yup. I thought of it, and my brain just decided to go with it. It's absurd but I still like the concept.
Rather surprised the peafowl weren't higher, I almost can't put them in my zoos with how fast I keep getting them which makes me sad since I also love them. I have some flamingos in a zoo right now doing the same thing, it's hard to get them to not interbreed xD
I think once they get going, they're breeding machines, but they took longer to get to the population density of some of the other prolific breeders!
Southern Cassowsries are a surprise. I expected Gharials to get 2nd behind Ostriches and then the peafowl and Lemurs but this is really interesting.
The birds are pretty good at having a lot of offspring all at the same time. I never realised before running this challenge that the animals follow the same rules as what happens in the wild, so they'll have a breeding and birthing season, and all give birth at the same time! Really cool feature
CAN U PUT IS SAVE UP ON THE WORKSHOP PLEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAASE LIKE I NEEEED THIS IN MY LIFE
It's on my to-do list!
@@PlasticSwans ❤
@@PlasticSwans have you nearly done it
Love this series Swans. Amazing idea and again well put together Doczoo-mentory
10:45 why that cheerful upbeat music though 💀
It's the absurdity. I thought of it and my brain just said "yup let's go with it" LOL
@@PlasticSwans I love it!
I'm just trying to recreate this challenge as there are so many more animals now. But trying to find younger ones for every species to make it fair. Let's see if the capybara and wallabys have a chance against the ostrich.
Let me know how you get on! I ran this up to Wetlands DLC, and the capys outperformed the ostrich, but yeah I didn't start with newly matured animals. It would've taken twice as long although I can appreciate that would've been fairer
Is there another video of the 100 Baby Challenge including the Wetlands DLC? I might wanna watch it while trying to find suitable animals.
I can totally understand you not bothering with the age of the animals, as it takes forever!
My rules for inclusion are:
Not more than 1/8 through their adult life and not more than 1/6 through their fertilile age (in case they differ). Fertility and longevity each are not allowed to be less than 33 and combined not less than 100.
Ok
I enjoyed this one, thanks!
[SPOILER ALERT!]
Galapagos Tortoises really, REALLY disappointed me. Team Aldabra at least tried.
Galapagos tortoises didn't get a fair run. She must have started with animals that were already over 100 years old, because, given the maths, a single Galapagos tortoise can produce well over 200 babies even in her OWN lifetime, and, with just THREE females involved, there can be more than 200 babies alive just at the same time.
That was a lot of fun!!
I think it would be a really cool video idea to see how long it would take to get each albino animal
Well this run, even with every species and 100s of babies in total, I got exactly 1 albino, a black (well white in this case) wildebeest!
There really seemed to be a bug with the ages. While some did live the normal lifespan, many didn't. Any species where one of the OGs died far sooner than they should have should have been restarted.
No bug with the ages. Some just inherited bad longevity genetics unfortunately. I played it out best way I could, and spent a very long time pulling it all together. The outcome is as it is
Incredible! Would you try something like this ( no ending once parents die )
For albinism?
I had this zoo running for close to 200 game years, and ended up with just 1 albino birth (a black wildebeest), it seems really difficult to get albino animals!
@@PlasticSwans yep! Currently I’m at like 50 years and only have black jaguars ( first gen )
you should have separated the babies from parents
But then how will the parents mate with their children?
I love this :0
There is only one OG croc
What if cheetah died at 99 babies?
SO cool!!!!
What if you have 2 OG PAIRS
What happened to the Galapagos tortoise?😬
Those poor tortoises got screwed over with bad longevity genetics. Where there was one of the original animals had it, that didn't really affect the outcome, but when both original parents had poor longevity, they dropped out pretty early unfortunately
Will you do a part with the New dlc animals?
Check out Part 4 🙂
the galapagos tortoise died at 45 im so confused
It was bad longevity genetics unfortunately. They can play a big part with it. I think dwarf caimans suffered the same fate
I am early.
Anyways nice video.
