“The Bluff City Zoo was a world-class institution, visited by locals and travelers alike. In the late 20th Century it was an iconic zoo, admired and beloved, it’s animals were content, it’s visitors happy, it’s staff respected. Chairman of the Zoo Board, D.E. Hitchcock the Fourth, welcomed people to the grounds with beaming pride as his father had for a generation before.
Now, D.E. Hitchcock is dead, the community takes the zoo for granted, attendance is down, the Zoo withers. The zookeepers grow desperate. Money is tight. Other, more successful zoos, in other cities (fuck Trenton) sniff around the place, looking to take away animals and staff.”
The Bluff City Zoo is located in the north of Bluff City, past the casinos, towards the mainland and into a marshland area. Part of the march was drained and reinforced it with concrete for the Zoo to be built on.
The staff uniform is a half-sized apron with deep pockets and an embroidered vest with your name and what area you work in. Staff must also wear a nice shirt (that they purchase).
Attractions
- Aviary
- Elephants (removed due to a painting incident)
- Great cats!
- Pachyderms
- Peacock Park, where the daily zoo press briefings occur. It has a storeroom that is decorated with a ugly mural done by local 5th graders.
- Bears - polar bears, black bear, panda (their sun bear escaped).
- Conservation exhibit presented by the local chapter of the Bluff City Nature Preservationist Society, includes a mural with quotes about nature written on it (located between the bathrooms and the gift shop).
- CyberZoo/"How Would Animals Use The Internet?”: an exhibit aimed at children with displays of technology that animals were supposed to able to use, including a wall-sized dot matrix printer to print out things from the internet for the animals to read (as screens are bad for animal eyes). The bird section of this exhibit has a little fake tree with keyboard keys hanging off of it. This is the exhibit that Dax Leopard was passed over for.
- Zoo Cafe, which has a 3/3 star health rating and provides breakfast, lunch, tea, high tea, dinner and evening dinner.
- Bluff City Zoo Bar, which includes an arcade game built for bears to play (HoneyTap) and a private room in the back.
