A short while after finishing the Zoo Tycoon 2 "movie", I also made a much shorter piece following the format of some well-loved Walking with Dinosaurs specials starring Nigel Marven. It has similar problems with pacing to the movie, but it's also much shorter, so I don't see much reason to chop it up into a truncated "cliff notes" version. I make absolutely no claims to the accuracy or well-informedness of Mr. Greenman's assertions; there's a mix of info here that was consciously outdated, hasn't aged well since 2019, and was just plain wrong even then without me knowing.
Like the "movie", this was genuinely filmed on a weak, cruddy computer, hence the terrible framerate.

This machinima also features downloads that were leaked before they were ready for a public release; Nano's Zoo 2 Zone does not condone the actions that led to Cretaceous Calamity's untimely "release", and had this been made today, the downloads would not have been used at all.)
